Expiation

Expiation

 

When they set about scalping the game

The tribal hunters would pray

“Pardon me for the killing and eating

For all that I take I will repay

In my afterlife. I will be your game

And you hunts me. Or i will be

The grass that your tribe graze on.”

 

Those getting their daily meat from the market

how many reincarnations would it take to pay the debt?

 

赎罪 

打到猎物开始剥皮时

有些部族的猎人会祈祷:

“我猎杀你是为了我的生存

宽恕我吧,我所得到的一定偿还

在你我的来世,我和你对换

成为你的猎物,或三秋草木

饲养你,以及你的族类!”

而天天从市场卖肉的人,可曾想过

要几世轮回才还得清这宿债呢?
