바스코 포파 (조영필 역)
7
네 은신처로 돌아가라
절름발이 늑대여
그리고 거기서 자거라
털갈이를 하고
새로 난 쇠 이빨을 네가 자를 때까지
자거라 내 선조의 뼈가
꽃 피우고 가지를 뻗어
땅의 껍질을 뚫을 때까지
자거라 네 은신처가 흔들려
너를 덮칠 때까지
자거라 네 부족이
하늘 저편에서
으르렁거리며 깨울 때까지
네 은신처로 돌아가라
네 잠 속에 내가 찾아가 보살피리니
절름발이 늑대여

Go back to your lair
Lame wolf
And sleep there
Until your coat changes
And you cut your new iron teeth
Sleep until the bones of my ancestors
Blossom and branch out
And break through the earth's crust
Sleep until your lair quakes
And falls in on you
Sleep until your tribe
From the other side of heaven
Wakes you with baying
Go back to your lair
I will visit and tend you in your sleep
Lame wolf
(translated by Anne Pennington, 2011)
7
Go back to your lair
Lame wolf
And sleep there
Until your grows again
And new iron teeth sprout
Sleep until the bones of my ancestors
Flower and branch out
And spear the earth's crust
Sleep until your lair shakes
And tumbles down on your head
Sleep until your tribe
From the other side of heaven
Wakens from your howling
Go back to your lair
I'll visit you and wait on you in dreams
Lame wolf
