Reinaldo Arenas — Ukukhethwa kwemibongo
iisonnets esihogweni
Yonke into ebinokubakho, nokuba ibikhona,
Akuzange kube njengoko bekuphuphayo.
Uthixo wenkxwaleko uzikhathalele
ukunika inyaniso enye intsingiselo.
Enye ingqondo, engazange ibonwe ngaphambili,
igubungela umnqweno ophunyeziweyo;
ukuze ubumnandi bube mnandi
ayinakuze ilingane noyiliweyo.
Xa iphupha lakho lizalisekile
(unzima, umsebenzi onzima kakhulu)
akuyi kubakho mvakalelo yokuba uphumelele
kunoko ihlala kwingqondo ediniweyo
intuition emnyama yokuba waphila
phantsi koxinzelelo olungapheliyo.
Hayi, umculo onzima
Hayi, mculo onenzondelelo, thetha nam ngezulu!
apho kunyanzelekileyo ukugrumba umhlaba.
Andiqondi ukuba kukho intuthuzelo enjalo
apho kukuhlala kuphela imfazwe engapheliyo.
Ewe, ngubani owothusayo osele wasitsala isigqubuthelo
uyazi ukuba luloyiko kuphela oluqulathwe lihlabathi.
Ayinamsebenzi ingoma yakho, inzondelelo kunye nenzondelelo:
Ndiva umnyango wokugqibela uvala.
Kwaye i-stupor yaloo snap inkulu kakhulu
ukuba elona lizwi linesibindi sele licaphukile
kwisandi sayo esomileyo, ukugquma kwayo okubulalayo;
kunye nezona zandi zomculo
phambi kwaloo ngxokozelo yamasango
amarhe ayo nawo ayathulisa.
kwinyanga yokugqibela
Kutheni le mvakalelo yokuza kukukhangela
apho nokuba ubhabha kangakanani na
Akunyanzelekanga ukuba ndikufumane.
Olunjani lona uloyiko olungapheliyo olundiqhubayo ngoku
ngaphezu kokunkwantya okungaka kuhlala kukuxhokonxa.
Intlungu yethu ayiyi kufumana ukuphumla
(ukuba ukuyifumana kuya kuqalisa esinye isivakalisi)
kwaye ngenxa yesizathu esifanayo andiyi kuyeka ukucinga ngawe.
Luna, kwakhona apha ndivalelwe
ekudibaneni kweendlela zokoyikeka ezininzi.
Ixesha elidlulileyo lilahlekile
Kwaye ukuba ndivuka ngoku
Kukubona ukuba ndonzakele
(kunye nokufa)
kuba mna sendiliphile ikamva.
Oko, ngokungathandabuzekiyo, lithamsanqa elo
ukuba ndijongene nokuphuma kwelabafileyo.
isithandwa esingaqhelekanga,
Kufuneka ndicinge nje ubuso bakho
(yeyam)
kuba mna nawe singumlambo
enqumla inkqantosi engapheliyo,
isetyhula kwaye ayinasiphelo:
isikhalo esinye
Ngoko uCervantes wayexhobile enye
Ngoko ke ingawenzi wayexhobe-nye;
isithulu, uBeethoven; Villon, isela;
UGóngora wayephambene kangangokuba wahamba ngeenyawo.
Okanye iProust? Ngokuqinisekileyo, i-fagot.
Umthengisi wamakhoboka, ewe, yayinguDon Nicolás Tanco,
kwaye uVirginia wathatha intambo,
ULautrémont usweleke engumkhenkce wabhubha ebhentshini.
Yeha, naye uShakespeare wayeyifagot.
Kwakhona uLeonardo kunye noFederico Garcia,
Whitman, uMichelangelo kunye noPetronius,
UGide, uGenet kunye noVisconti, abo babulalayo.
Le, manene, i-biography emfutshane
(Yhuu, ndilibele ukukhankanya uSaint Anthony!)
kwabo babambe ixesha lobugcisa obuqinileyo.
Mna nawe sigwetyiwe
Mna nawe sigwetyiwe
Ngokuphuphuma komsindo wenkosi engabonakalisi ubuso bayo
ukudanisa kwindawo etshisiweyo
okanye ukuzimela kwi-esile ye-monster ethile.
Mna nawe sihlala singamabanjwa
kweso siqalekiso singaziwayo.
Ngaphandle kokuphila, ukulwela ubomi.
Engenantloko, ethwele umnqwazi.
I-Vagabonds ngaphandle kwexesha kwaye ngaphandle kwendawo,
singqongwe bubusuku obungenasiphelo;
lithandela iinyawo zethu, lisithintele.
Sihamba siphupha ngebhotwe elikhulu
nelanga, umfanekiso walo owaphukileyo, lisibuyisela kuthi
iguqulwe yaba yintolongo esikhuselayo.
Asingabafileyo abaqumbisayo
Asingomntu ofileyo obangela isithonga
Kuyothusa ukubona indlela esilibala ngayo
ukufa kwakhe, intlungu yethu enkulu.
Umfi uhleli, siyahamba.
Asingomntu ofileyo, hayi, orhoxayo.
Thina singabo baxoxayo,
phezu kwesidumbu esijonge kuthi cwaka,
ithuba lokuqhubeka uphila.
Xa sikhumbula abafileyo siyababona
(imidlalo yexesha, iskena se-macabre)
Ayingomntu ofileyo ke simbonayo.
Sithi thina esihlala sidakumbile
ukubona indlela esikhangeleka ngayo ngaphandle koloyiko
kulowo ubolileyo ngokoyikekayo.
