engleski na srpski: 7th ProZ.com Translation Contest - Entry #5873
Izvorni tekst - engleski Winters used to be cold in England. We, my parents especially, spent them watching the wrestling. The wrestling they watched on their black-and-white television sets on Saturday afternoons represented a brief intrusion of life and colour in their otherwise monochrome lives. Their work overalls were faded, the sofa cover—unchanged for years—was faded, their memories of the people they had been before coming to England were fading too. My parents, their whole generation, treadmilled away the best years of their lives toiling in factories for shoddy paypackets. A life of drudgery, of deformed spines, of chronic arthritis, of severed hands. They bit their lips and put up with the pain. They had no option but to. In their minds they tried to switch off—to ignore the slights of co-workers, not to bridle against the glib cackling of foremen, and, in the case of Indian women, not to fret when they were slapped about by their husbands. Put up with the pain, they told themselves, deal with the pain—the shooting pains up the arms, the corroded hip joints, the back seizures from leaning over sewing machines for too many years, the callused knuckles from handwashing clothes, the rheumy knees from scrubbing the kitchen floor with their husbands' used underpants.
When my parents sat down to watch the wrestling on Saturday afternoons, milky cardamon tea in hand, they wanted to be entertained, they wanted a laugh. But they also wanted the good guy, just for once, to triumph over the bad guy. They wanted the swaggering, braying bully to get his come-uppance. They prayed for the nice guy, lying there on the canvas, trapped in a double-finger interlock or clutching his kidneys in agony, not to submit. If only he could hold out just a bit longer, bear the pain, last the course. If only he did these things, chances were, wrestling being what it was, that he would triumph. It was only a qualified victory, however. You'd see the winner, exhausted, barely able to wave to the crowd. The triumph was mainly one of survival.
Prevod - srpski Nekada su zime u Engleskoj bile hladne. Mi, posebno moji roditelji, provodili smo ih gledajući rvanje. Rvanje koje su gledali subotom poslepodne na svojim crno-belim televizorima predstavljalo je, na kratko, unošenje boje i životi u njihove, inače, jednolične živote. Njihova radna odela bila su izbledela, prekirivač na trosedu-godinama nepromenjen, bio je izbledeo, sećanja na same sebe kakvi su bili pre dolaska u Englesku, takođe su izbledela. Moji roditelji i čitava njihova generacija, otaljali su najbolje godine svog života mukotrpno radeći u fabrikama za bezvredan džeparac. Mučan život, deformisane kičme, hronični artritis, promrzle ruke. Grizli su usne i mirili se sa bolom. Nisu imali drugog izbora. U mislima su pokušavali da se "Isključe" - da ignorišu omalovažavanje svojih saradnika, da ih ne dotiče večito brbljanje poslovođa, a, kada se radilo o indijanskim ženama, da ih ne pogađa to što su dobijale ćuške od svojih muževa. Izdrži bol, govorili su sebi, pomiri se sa bolom- sa o štrim bolovima u rukama, ukočenim kukovima, bolovima u leđima od dugogodišnjeg savijanja nad šivaćom mašinom, u žuljevitim zglobovima dobijenim pranjem veša na ruke, sa bolovima u reumatičnim kolenima, dobijenim ribanjem kuhinjskog poda starim muževljevim gaćama.
Kada bi moji roditelji sedali subotom poslepodne da gledaju rvanje, sa šoljom čaja od kardamoma sa mlekom u rukama, želeli su samo da se zabave, da se nasmeju. Ali isto tako, želeli su da dobar momak, bar jednom, trijumfuje nad lošim momkom. Želeli su da gizdavi, siledžija-galamdžija dobije ono što zaslužuje. Ispruženi na onom prekrivaču, molili su se za onog dobrog momka da ne preda borbu, uhvaćeni u klinč ili ščepavši njegov bubreg u agoniji. Kad bi samo mogao još malo da izdrži, da podnese bol, da izdrži do kraja.Kad bi samo uspeo u svemu tome, ima šanse da trijumfuje, u rvanju takvom kakvo je.Ali, to je samo delimična pobeda. Vidite pobednika, iscrpljenog, jedva sposobnog da mahne gomili. Pravi trijumf je opstanak.
