《七弦琴的哀歌》（十四行集）自序

[中国] 大 藏

要么飞升，要么坠落。年少时经受过的挫折，感受过的茫昧无知，让我无可选择地倾心于诗歌与爱。这两个主题，在当时是同一个问题的两个方面，对我来说都有着沉重的人生况味。诗歌让我在精神上得到超越，指引我赢得智识，获得理性；而爱情让我得以超脱和升华。两者最终的旨归，便是构建一个属于自己的精神家园。我当时认为，人生最大的幸福莫过于此吧。

如果诗歌是一种宗教，我愿意一生皈依于它，让我活在对灵魂之爱的虔诚巡礼中。年少（直至青年时代）曾体验的真纯之爱，包括对诗歌的热爱，赐予了我灵魂的欢乐，也带给了我巨大的创伤与苦痛。这个世界留给诗人的空间太小了，而追逐形而上之爱的过程，更是痛苦远远大于欢乐。然而，诗人只要能体验到一瞬间，哪怕是哀愁，哪怕是悲怆，便也是得到永恒了。青春韶华逝如流水，现在，心里只要生出些美好的渴慕，抑或对曾经真纯的缅怀，便越能体会到现世的冷酷及生命的残酷。那曾经的一切美好，一切情怀都已无可挽回了。

爱与诗歌对我来说，更似一场不经意间的命运游戏，而我的躯体和心灵不设防地接纳了她们，我的心不由自主地全部承受了她们的厚重，她们让我充满憧憬，让我默思、沉郁直到悲伤，同时也激起我对生命本身的抗争。世上美好的事物，包括灵魂的欢乐总是那么稍纵即逝，它值得被心灵歌颂，永久地留存。那些刻骨铭心的创痛，仍然在身体里挥之不去；那些被感同身受捕捉到的沉重的悲哀——包括爱，包括人生，包括死亡，包括命运……它们留存在心灵深处，会时不时跳出来提醒我、刺痛我。而我抗争的唯一方式是忠实于这种感觉，并试着艰难地写成一首首诗。

之所以构思《七弦琴的哀歌》这样一部爱情的哀歌，同时也是灵魂的挽歌，首先是希望可以找到一个合理的途径，来渲疏只属于我个人内在的心灵冲突和创伤，这几乎是不言而喻的身体本能。其次，希望对过往生命历程与体验做一次阶段性的总结，给自己寻求一次在诗艺方面的沉淀和独特艺术表现方式的实验。最后，这部诗集最宏大的要旨，在于探讨爱与生命、爱与命运、爱与诗歌、爱与美，以及诗与灵魂、诗与命运等等诸多的内在整合联系——虽然这几乎是一个不能实现的宏大愿望。

我不是一个诗歌流派主张者，也不是诗歌形式主义者。但是在诗歌这个无涯的海洋中，以我极其有限的中外诗歌阅览量、探索度和极其粗浅的诗写领悟能力，我似乎已经找到了一种相对比较适当的、典雅的诗歌书写形式——十四行诗，来书写和表达我如梦似幻的心灵世界。这部诗集绝大部分诗歌采用了“四句-四句-三句-三句”的形制和诗节划分，也有少量诗则按照语感和句势来分诗节。除了诗歌形式之外，在诗思内容的表现上，我的十四行诗已经隐约形成了我自己的诗写规律，语势如何起承转合，似乎已经摸到了一定的窍门。关于这部分，属于更深层次的汉语十四行创作技巧问题，有待我深入总结和提炼，就不在这里细陈了。总体上，我创作的是完全自由的十四行诗，并不是严格的、讲究十四行格律的西方十四行诗，同时到目前为止，我最好的汉语十四行诗，也有着一定内在的气韵结构。我将以一种静穆、纯粹的心境，来审视和观照内心斑斓驳杂的意象，不断完成汉语十四行的探索，无论最后能写成什么样，实验结果如何。

最后说一下这部诗集的命名和缘起。七弦琴，作为古希腊民间弹拨乐器，传说是太阳神阿波罗的儿子俄而甫斯的乐器；七弦琴使他成为一位著名琴师，只要他一开始弹奏，万物都会静静地聆听并为琴声所打动。关于七弦琴，还有一个俄而甫斯与仙女欧律狄克（Ευρυδίκη）相亲相爱，俄而甫斯用琴声在冥界拯救妻子、痛失爱侣并最终团聚的既美好又哀婉的爱情故事。同时七弦竖琴也是抒情诗女神厄拉托(Erato)的象征。据说七弦琴产生于文艺复兴时期(14-16世纪)，那时的绘画作品多以宗教和希腊罗马神话为题材。因此七弦琴这一典雅、匀称、古朴的最古老乐器，就成了西方艺术世界美妙音乐、美好爱情的象征。而对我和我这部诗集来说，正是“七弦琴”，让我所有关于爱、关于诗甚至关于美的诗思灵感，找到了一个最富有想象空间的意象寄托。 

关于“七弦琴(lyre)”，最初的灵感来自大学时代我所爱恋过的一位女子（她曾经写了一本取名为《七弦琴》的诗集），当时我在大学里就写出了包括《雪霓天堂》（十四行组诗）、《生日霓环》（十四行）以及《七弦琴上的断章》（十四行五首）等在内的很多诗歌。所以，这部《七弦琴的哀歌》诗集最初的设想，也是用来纪念几位我爱过或珍视的女性。正是她们，赋予了我对爱和美的最原始想象，以及对诗歌和生命的本初冲动。

这部《七弦琴的哀歌》十四行诗集，共收入了40首十四行诗，其中第一辑，全部是献给和“七弦琴”有关的这位我深爱过的女子的，所有诗歌是因她而写，所有的哀歌因她而唱，总命名为《七弦琴上的断章》。第二辑是《挽歌》，纪念所有美好而已经消逝的一切——这里有爱情的悲挽之歌，有灵魂的凄婉之歌，也有生命的献祭之歌，还有对诗歌本身的叹挽之歌。第三辑是颂歌（或献歌），是献给美好爱情和完美生活的，这个专辑的份量在三辑中比重最小。我在前两个专辑中投入更大的心力，感觉也更得心应手，可以产生一两篇来流传后世也说不准，而最后的颂歌部分本就不是我擅长的，只能凑数罢了。

当然，这部《七弦琴的哀歌》十四行诗集，还远远没有完成。在这里，你只看到了她的雏形。我规划过的写作提纲，应该有几大板块，几百个标题。由于我对创作环境和写作条件的严苛，能真正心无旁骛、悠闲自在的时候总是太少，独处和无人打扰的空间也不多——要做一个真正创作的诗人谈何容易，谁不是都在忙于生存和生活？好的诗歌只能等待，不是想写就能写得出，等到有一天各方面条件成熟，题材构思都酝酿成形，再来下笔吧。谢谢各位！

我要特别感谢我的夫人诗人、翻译家苏菲女士，没有她在我人生关口的提携帮助，没有她对我生活的照顾支持，我不可能走到今天，我的这部诗集更不可能顺利被翻译编辑出版。感谢她对这部《七弦琴的哀歌》诗集的卓著翻译！另外，她还为我这部诗集亲自撰写了前言，对我写的《我从未曾想占有你》（十四行）一诗，进行了详尽、深入的专业解读，表现出了她除了是一名杰出的诗人、翻译家外，还可能是一位最具潜力的诗评家。我深深地感谢她！

Author's Preface to The Elegy Of The Lyre (Sonnets)

[China] Dazang Chen

Either it rises or it falls. The frustration I experienced and the ignorance I felt in my youth, made me devoted to poetry and love with no choosing. These two themes, which at that time were two sides of the same question, both had a heavy flavor of life for me. Poetry makes me spiritually transcended, guides me to gain knowledge and rationality; And love allows me to transcend and sublimate. The ultimate aim of both is to build a spiritual home of my own. I thought there was no greater happiness in life than this.

If poetry were a religion, I would convert to it all my life, and let me live in a devotional tour of the love of the soul. The pure love I had experienced in my young age (and into my youth), including the love of poetry, had brought me joy to my soul, but had also brought me great wounds and pains.The world leaves too little room for poets, and the pursuit of metaphysical love is far more painful than joyful. However, as long as the poet can experience a moment, even sadness, even sorrow, it is eternal. Youth has been going like water, now, as long as the heart gives birth to some beautiful longing, or the memory of once truly pure, the more i can realize the cold and cruel life. All the happiness and all the feelings in the past have been irreparable.

Love and poetry to me, is more like a casual game of fate, and my body and mind accept them without defense, my heart can not help to bear all their heavy, and they give me full longing, let me mused, depressed until sad, but also arouse my struggle against life itself. The good things, in the world, including the joy of the soul, always so fleeting, deserve to be celebrated by the heart and preserved forever. Those unforgettable wounds, are still lingering in the body; the heavy sorrow that is captured by empathy — including love, including life, including death, including fate... they remain in the depths of my mind and will jump out of me from time to time to remind me and sting me. And the only way I can fight is to stay true to that feeling and try my best to write down one poem after another. 

The reason why I’ve an idea of designing The Elegy Of The Lyre, such a love elegy, also a soul elegy, first of all, I hope to find a reasonable way to relieve my personal inner spiritual conflict and trauma, which is almost self-evident physical instinct. Secondly, I hope to make a phased summary of the past life process and experience, and seek a precipitation in poetry art and an experiment of unique artistic expression. Finally, the greatest theme of this collection is to explore the inner integration of love and life, love and fate, love and poetry, love and beauty, poetry and soul, poetry and fate, and so on — although this is almost a grand wish that cannot be realized.

I am not a poet who holds any idea of poetry school, nor am I a formalist. However, in the boundless ocean of poetry, with my extremely limited reading and exploration of Chinese and foreign poetry and my extremely shallow ability to comprehend poetry writing, I seem to have found a relatively appropriate and elegant form of poetry writing — sonnets, to write and express my dream like spiritual world. Most of the poems in this collection adopt the form system and poetry stanza segmentation of “four-four-three-three-sentences”, and a few poems are segmented according to the potential sense of language and poetry stanza. In addition to the form of the poem, in the expression of the content of the poem, my sonnets have vaguely formed my own rules of writing poetry, and it seems that I have touched a certain skill of how to rise and fall. As for this part, it is a deeper problem of Chinese sonnet creation skills, which needs to be thoroughly summarized and refined by me, so I will not thoroughly explain it here. On the whole, I write completely free sonnets, not the strict and rhythmic Western sonnets, and my best Chinese sonnets so far have a certain internal structure. With a quiet and pure state of mind, I will examine and observe the colorful and varied images in my heart, and continue to complete the exploration of Chinese sonnets, no matter what kind of poems can be done in the end and what the experimental results are.

Finally, I will talk about the naming and origin of this collection. The lyre, as a folk plucked instrument in ancient Greece, is said to be the instrument of the Sun God Apollo's son, Orpheus; The lyre made him a famous luthier, and as soon as he began to play, everything listened his music and was moved. About the lyre, there is also a beautiful and sad love story about the love between Orpheus and the fairy Eurydice (Ευρυδίκη), in which Orpheus saves his wife in the underworld with the sound of the lyre, loses his lover and finally reunites with his lover. The  lyre is also a symbol of the lyric goddess Erato. The lyre is said to have originated during the Renaissance (14th-16th centuries), when paintings focused on religion and Greco-Roman mythology. Therefore, the lyre, the most ancient instrument of elegance, symmetry and simplicity, has become a symbol of beautiful music and beautiful love in the Western art world. For me and my poetry collection, it is the “lyre” that gives me inspiration for all my poems about love, poetry and even beauty to find an image sustenance with the most imaginative space.

The original inspiration for the “lyre” came from a girl I had fallen in love with in college （she had written a poetry collection called the “Lyre”）, at that time, I wrote many poems in college, including “Snow Rainbow in Heaven（A Group of Sonnets）”, “The Secondary Rainbow on Birthday”（Sonnets）and “The Broken Poems on the Lyre” (5 Sonnets). Therefore, the original idea of this poetry collection of “The Elegy Of The Lyre”, is also to commemorate several women I have loved or valued. It is these women who have given me the most primitive imagination of love and beauty, and the first impulse to poetry and life.

This sonnet collection of The Elegy Of The Lyre contains a total of 40 sonnets, the first series of which is dedicated to the woman who is related to the Lyre, and all the poems are written for her, and all the elegy are sung for her, and they are called “The Broken Poems On The Lyre”. The second series is “Elegy”, a memorial to all that is good and have gone — here there are songs of love’s sorrow, songs of the soul’s sorrow, songs of the sacrifice of life, songs of the elegy of poetry itself. The third series is the odes (or dedication) to good love and a perfect life, and this series has the least weight of the three series. I put more effort into the first two series, and felt more comfortable to write, and could have produced one or two poems for the future generations, who knows, and the final ode part is not my strong point of writing, so I have to make up for it.

Of course, this sonnets collection The Elegy Of The Lyre is far from to be finished. Here, you only see her in early form. The writing outline I have planned should have the several large sections and hundreds of headings. Due to my strict creative environment and writing conditions, there are always too few times when I can be truly leisurely and not be distracted and there is not much space to be alone and undisturbed — it is not easy to be a truly creative poet, who is not busy with survival and life? Good poetry can only be waited, and it does not that when you want write one, you can write one, and i am waiting until one day all aspects of the conditions are mature, the theme ideas are brewing and forming, then write them. Thank you, everybody!

I would like to express my special thanks to my wife, the poet and translator Sophy Chen, without her help at the threshold of my life, without her care and support for my life, I could not have come to this day, and my poetry collection would not have been successfully translated, edited and published. Thanks for her excellent translation of the poetry collection The Elegy Of The Lyre ! In addition, she also personally wrote the foreword for this collection of my poetry, and carried out a detailed and in-depth professional interpretation of my poem “I’ve Never Wanted to Possess You”(Sonnets), which shows that she is not only an outstanding poet and translator, but also perhaps the most potential poetry critic. I am deeply grateful for her!
