14 kinesiska sånger

Song Cycle by Hilding Rosenberg (1892 - 1985)

1. Vårsång
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Festklädd träder hon ut ur sin kammare
i trädgården där våren är inhägnad.
Då hon stående i dess mitt söker räkna blommorna 
slår en trollslända ner på hennes hårnål av jade.

2. I bambusnåret
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Tillbakalutad i det täta bambusnåret 
spelar jag på min luta och nynnar en sång, 
så sakta att ingen kan höra den 
utom min vän, den bleka månen.

3. Snö på floden
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Etthundra berg och ingen fågel, 
ettusen stigar och intet fotspår, 
en liten båt,
en gammal man som fiskar på floden i den kalla snön.

4. På väg över Hanfloden
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Långt borta från hemmet längtade jag efter nyheter, 
vinter efter vinter, vår efter vår.
Nu då jag närmar mig min by och möter människor 
vågar jag inte fråga dem om någonting alls.

5. Poem
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
På en väg som når längre än de vita molnen, 
längs en källa som löper ifatt den blåaste floden 
kommer blomblad flygande med vinden,
och bäcken doftar av dem hela vägen.
Min trädgård öppnar sig mot berget,
pilträden kring min hydda
sila solljus i droppar genom middagsskuggan.

6. Lyssnande till en nattlig flöjt från Shouhsiang‑muren
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Sanden under gränsberget ligger vit som snö 
och månen som frost över stadens mur, 
och någonstädes spelar en ensam flöjt
som gör soldaterna hemsjuka hela natten.

7. Fullmånen
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Fullmånen över sjön 
gör hela himlen ljus
och skänker hjärtan skilda från varandra
en lång och tankfull natt.
Det blir ej mörkare för att jag släcker ljuset.
Så lämnar jag 
mitt brev åt månen
och går till sängs och väntar goda drömmar.

8. En suck fran en trappa av jade
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Hennes jadevita trappa är full av dagg,
hennes silkesskor är våta, hon stannade för länge ute. 
Varför väntar hon ännu bakom det stängda fönstret, 
betraktande höstmånens glans genom rutans kristall.

9. En hovdikt
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Från det höga jadegemaket stiger sången halvvägs mot himlen
och hovdamernas röster blanda sig med vinden. 
Men nu tystna de plötsligt och de hör ett vatten som droppar i Mångården.
De ha dragit undan draperiet och betrakta Vintergatan.

10. Gränslös längtan
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Jag längtar gränslöst
till Ch'ang-an.
Insekter surra höstlikt över brunnens kant, 
och frosten glittrar som små speglar på min matta. 
Lamplågan flämtar och min längtan växer

Jag lyfter undan skärmen och betraktar månen,

ensam som en blomma ibland mörka skyar. 
Däruppe himlens blåa djup,
därnere rastlöst dunkla vatten.

Hög är himlen, vid är jorden, mellan dem flyger bitter min sorg.
Kan mina drömmar aldrig tränga över bergen? 
Gränslösa längtan
som trycker mitt hjärta.

11. På besök hos en vän i hans lantgård
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Medan du tillreder en kyckling med ris 
underhåller du mig, gamle vän, med förtroligt samtal. 
Vi betrakta de gröna träden kring din by
och de blekgrå bergen i fjärran.
Vi öppna ditt fönster mot gårdar och fält,
och med våra bägare lyfta i handen språka vi om mullbär och hampa.
Vänta till det Heliga bergets fest,
då kommer jag tillbaka vid krysantemumtiden.

12. Gränssånger
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Högt i det bleka månljuset ropa vildgässen. 
Tartariska hövdingar fly genom mörkret. 
Vi jaga dem burna av våra snabba härar 
med snöhöljda bågar och svärd.

Låt festen begynna i det larmande lägret, 
låt hornen förkunna vår seger!
Låt oss dricka och dansa i gyllene rustning! 
Låt våra trummor eka mot floder och berg!

13. Sång från palatset
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Porten har sakta stängts till palatsets trädgård,
haremsdamerna trippa bort mot sin paviljong av jade. 
Ah! Proppfulla av kejserligt skvaller som ingen vågar andas om
så länge de ha kejsarens papegoja mitt ibland sig.

14. En vårmorgon
 (Sung text)

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Lätt om hjärtat vaknar jag en morgon om våren, 
runt omkring mig sjunga fåglarna.
Men då minns jag natten och stormen
och tänker på hur många blommor som skövlats.
