D098: [羅馬尼亞] Sapanta 的開心墓園

這個出自單單一個木匠師的想法,竟成為全羅馬尼亞甚至全世界獨一無二的地方。

Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

這些一塊塊鮮藍色裝飾得美侖美奐、顏色鮮豔奪目的木牌就是 Sapanta 這條村村民才有資格獨有的墓碑。外形獨特之餘,原來刻在墓碑上的字句才是令這地方變得更有趣,更值得讓人探訪之處。

這些木碑源自 1935 年木刻匠 Stan Ioan Pătraş,為他的一個朋友設計了一個別具一格的木碑後,村民都很喜歡這個設計,便陸陸續續找他來為自己設計同樣風格的木碑。久而久之墓園以有 800 多個藍色木碑,還會不斷增加。

為什麼村民會喜歡這個設計呢?大概是因為熟悉你的木刻匠會以第一身方式,以幽默樂觀的文字和漫畫式的圖刻將你一生的生平刻上,讓念掛著你的家人朋友都歡欣釋懷地面對你的離去。

我和日本針灸師(很有緣地,我們在之前的城市分別,她走了 Moldova 一趟再回來,只在這裡逗留 20 分鐘也剛好給我遇上,真的超有綠份)都一致覺得,如果可以有這種墓碑,真的太幸福了。

幸得民宿老闆的翻譯,或許你看了以下的碑文(有些還有上下文)也想要一個也說不定。

幸福的老婆婆

Old Lady . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

Here I am resting and my name is Ileana Oncului.
I raised seven children and God bless they are all good.
I still see myself making good food in order for them to grow big.
I lived and I was not the case as a widow who adhere to bad and upset who died in Birland. 
All these are left to 76 of 1971

無辜的割頭

Headless . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

Oh my bad I rested and John is my name.
In my garden of sheep I was attacked at the back by an Hungarian \
my head was cut off from the body and buried nearby
They should be cursed. Blaster.
I lived 58 years.

被車撞倒的小女生

Little Girl . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

Here I rest and my name is Ileana
I had a short life as it was a fate for me to die 
trampled by a roadside wheel motor engine
Oh my poor mother leaving her and upset her a lot
I managed to hide in the mist and be with the angels
so she would not miss me.

下文(刻在木碑背面):

I was the only child when I left but after a year my brother Myo comes.
My parents will have a lot of joy with him and will stop missing me.
I will weep on the small plant of my brother and let it grow.
I left my life in only 10 years.

被雷劈死了的男生

Young Victim of Ligthning . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

Here is the sleeping lion and my name is poor George.
My life was like an ice-melted chocolate
when the lightning hit me who was digging in the field.
Poor father and mother will be upset and
they will remember my young life forever of the hobnail of me.
19 dead in 1954.

始作俑者的外母

Mother-in-Law . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Romania

Under this heavy cross lies my little mother-in-law. 
In three days, she should be the one who pass here and reading this instead of me. 
I found her not trying to wake up when I come home again and
no longer I can hear the strong ballots from her mouth about how bad I am.
Well lived for 82 years of 1969.

始作俑者 Stan Ioan Patras

The Creator . Merry Cemetery . Sapanta . Maramures . Romania

Since I was a little boy
I was known as Stan Ioan Pătraş
Listen to me, fellows
There are no lies in what I am going to say
All along my life
I meant no harm to anyone
But did good as much as I could
To anyone who asked
Oh, my poor World
Because It was hard living in it

還有下文(木碑背面),不過我不翻譯了,最接近拉丁文的羅馬尼亞語太難了。

我真的很欽佩木刻匠對死亡的欣然和豁達,也欣賞村民的開通和智慧。現在木刻匠已離去,但他的徒弟,他的村民還會繼續延續這種已經變成傳統的做法。

看著他為墓園外刻的十字架也同樣風趣。

最底是個魔鬼:I am being forgotten and I am stronger than Christian that I am ugly death of all and bring them all under bush

但最後最底的魔鬼還是得面對耶穌釘十架及復活、瑪利亞及最後審判。
