Message
Mom，I came when you were out．
I knew the key was still placed in the interstice
Between the wall and the mailbox．
I examined the floor under the wardrobe1) and found the secret
You took out and hid back every night，
A nanmu2) case．I meant to take away the bank deposit book，
But soon I recognized the cloth
That wrapped your treasure had once swaddled3) me．
Washed and ironed so neat，it' s still fresh after so many years．
Mom，I thought you were nothing but a s tubborn4)，cold vixen5)．
I leave this message，just to let you know I came
But moved nothing．And I，yes I，am still swaddled in the cloth．

我來過了，媽媽，
進(jìn)門時(shí)，我知道鑰匙還放在信箱與墻壁的夾縫中間。
我找到了大衣柜下你每晚取出又藏好的秘密。
那楠木盒。
本來我是要拿走那存折的
可我看到夾放那筆巨款的是我最初的襁褓，
你洗、熨得多么干凈，新鮮，保留了這么多年。
我原以為你只有嘮叨、倔犟和冷漠呢。
我留下這紙條，告訴你，我來過了
什么也沒動(dòng)，而我，是的，我還在那襁褓里。
