关关雎鸠，在河之洲。
窈窕淑女，君子好逑。——《关雎》
By riverside a pair
Of turtledoves are cooing;
There is a maiden fair
Whom a young man is wooing. (Cooing and Wooing)
昔我往矣，杨柳依依。
今我来思，雨雪霏霏。——《采薇》
When I left here,
Willows shed tear.
I come back now,
Snow bends the bough. (A Homesick Warrior)
彼采葛兮。一日不见，如三月兮。
彼采萧兮。一日不见，如三秋兮。——《采葛》
To gather vine goes she.
I miss her whom I do not see,
One day seems longer than months three.
To gather reed goes she.
I miss her whom I do not see,
One day seems long as seasons three. (One Day When I See Her Not)
蒹葭采采，白露未已。
所谓伊人，在水之涘。——《蒹葭》
Bright, bright the reed,
With frost dews blend.
Where is she I need,
At river’s end. (Where is She?)
欲穷千里目，更上一层楼。——《登鹳雀楼》
You can enjoy a great sight,
By climbing to a greater height. (On the Stock Tower)
夜来风雨声，花落知多少。——《春晓》
After one night of wind and showers,
How many are the fallen flowers? (Spring Morning)
生当作人杰，死亦为鬼雄。——《绝句》
Be man of men while you’re alive,
And soul of souls if you’re dead. (A Quatrain)
寻寻觅觅冷冷清清，凄凄惨惨戚戚。——《声声慢》
I look for what I miss,
I know not what it is.
I feel so sad, so drear,
So lonely, without cheer. (Tune: “Slow, Slow Tune”)
庭院深深深几许，杨柳堆烟，帘幕无重数。——《蝶恋花》
Deep, deep the courtyard
where he is, so deep
It’s veiled by smokelike willows
heap on heap,
By curtain on curtain and
screen on screen. (Butterflies in Love with Flowers)
床前明月光，疑是地上霜。
举头望明月，低头思故乡。——《静夜思》
Abed, I see a silver light,
I wonder if it’s frost aground.
Looking up, I find the moon bright,
Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned. (A Tranquil Night)
夕阳无限好，只是近黄昏。——《登乐游原》
The setting sun seems so sublime.
But it is near its dying time. (On the Plain of Tombs)
莫愁前路无知己，天下谁人不识君。——《别董大》
Fear not you have not admirers as you go along,
There is no connoisseur on earth but loves your song. (Farewell to a Lutist)
千山鸟飞绝，万径人踪灭。
孤舟蓑笠翁，独钓寒江雪。——《江雪》
From hill to hill no bird in flight,
From path to path no man in sight.
A lonely fisherman afloat,
Is fishing snow in lonely boat. (Fishing in Snow)
无边落木萧萧下，不尽长江滚滚来。——《登高》
The boundless forest sheds its leaves shower by shower,
The endless river rolls its waves hour after hour. (One the Height)
断续寒砧断续风。——《捣练子·深院静》
The intermittent beetles chill,
And intermittent breezes trill. (Song of the Washerwoman)
问君能有几多愁，恰似一江春水向东流。——《虞美人·春花秋月何时了》
If you ask me how much my sorrow has increased,
Just see the overbrimming river flowing east. (Tune: "The Beautiful Lady Yu")
浑身碎骨仍不怕，要留清白在人间。——《石灰吟》
Though broken into pieces, you’ll have no fright.
You’ll purify the world by washing it e’er white. (Song to the Lime)
几时归去，作个闲人。对一张琴、一壶酒、一溪云。——《行香子·述怀》
So I would be
A man carefree.
I would be mute before my lute;
It would be fine in face of wine;
I would be proud to cleave the cloud. (Song of Pilgrimage)
葡萄美酒夜光杯，欲饮琵琶马上催。
醉卧沙场君莫笑，古来征战几人回!——《凉州词》
With wine of grapes the cups of jade would glow at night,
Drinking to pipa songs we are summoned to fight.
Don’t laugh if we lay drunken on the battleground!
How many warriors ever came back safe and sound? (Starting for the Front) |
