Dear Mr. Waters
亲爱的沃特斯先生
Don asked me to let you know that he is in hospital now

And has been diagnosed with a cancer in his sinus

He also asked me to tell everyone that he is not answering any letters

Best to you

Don's assistant Kendel

And then I wrote to Kendel

Dear Kendel
亲爱的肯德尔
The other night in Zagreb
那夜在萨格勒布城中
At the end of the show
演出临近尾声时
When I sometimes wax political
当我偶尔谈及政事
I suddenly found myself telling ten thousand Croats Don's One Road story
忽而向万千克罗地亚观众 讲述唐的"单行道"轶事
I had no idea if they would get it
不知他们能否领会其中深意
When I got to the line There is only one road in Yugoslavia
当我说到"南斯拉夫只有一条路"时
They burst into loud and genuine laughter
场下爆发出真挚响亮的笑声
I told them the rest of the story in brief including Kirby's cancer and reached the end
我简略讲完后续故事 包括柯比患癌的片段 直至终章
There is only one road
世间仅此一条路
I stayed in touch with Kendel
我与肯德尔保持着联系
She lived a couple of hundred yards down the road from the farm house
她住在农场小屋沿路几百码外
Somehow Don's plan for the Eagle Farm to stay in the family
唐想让鹰巢农场留在家族手中
Never worked out and it went on the market
终究未能如愿 最终挂牌出售
Eventually an estate sale was organised and Kendel kept me informed
后来举办遗产拍卖会 肯德尔一直告知我进展
It's a long drive
路途遥远
It was still light when we got there
抵达时天光仍未散尽
So we went to the farm and sat on the porch
我们来到农场 坐在门廊下
And chatted to a few people who were gathered there
与聚集在此的人们闲谈叙话
Some ladies intent on protecting Don's legacy
几位女士执着守护唐的遗泽
Determined to at least buy his red chair
誓要拍下他心爱的红椅回家
And some other important stuff
还有其他珍贵旧物
I told Kendel that if it was okay with the estate
我告诉肯德尔若遗产方允许
I would like a couple of bale hooks and some baling twine from the barn
想从谷仓带走几把草叉和麻绳
She organised that
她为我妥善安排
Thank you sweet Kendel
感谢你 亲爱的肯德尔
Tears burn my eyes my new old friend
泪水灼痛双眼 我新识的故友
My bale hooks and twine arrived a few months later
几个月后收到草钩与麻绳
With a colour photograph of Don with Kendel
附着一张唐与肯德尔的彩色合影
They live
它们仍在
Hooks twine and pic
钩绳与照片
Slap-bang in the middle of some beautiful shelves we have on the landing
静静栖息在楼梯转角精美的木架上
In pride of place alongside some mummified dragonflies
与几只风干的蜻蜓标本共享荣耀之位
And old robins' eggs
那些知更鸟的旧蛋壳
Treasured
被珍藏
Forever catching the rays of the dying sun
永远沐浴着落日余晖
At that gin rumminy time of the afternoon that I love
在我钟爱的午后杜松子酒时光
Well R.I.P. Donald Hall
安息吧 唐纳德·霍尔
And now I've arrived at the bit I was looking for
此刻我终于寻得所求
The Crossroads
那命运十字路口
