杜甫·《梦李白》英译

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 

死别已吞声，生别常恻恻。

江南瘴疠地，逐客无消息。

故人入我梦，明我长相忆。

君今在罗网，何以有羽翼？

恐非平生魂，路远不可测。

魂来枫叶青，魂返关塞黑。

落月满屋梁，犹疑照颜色。

水深波浪阔，无使皎龙得！

Dreaming of Li Bai

We stifle sobs on parting with the dead;

On parting with the living, tears are shed.

You’re exiled to miasmic Southern shore.

How can you not send us news anymore?

Last night you came into my dream anew;

This shows how long I am thinking of you.

Now you are caught in net and bound with strings.

How can you free yourself with bound-up wings?

I fear it was not your soul I did dream.

Could it go such long way o’er mount and stream?

When it came, green would maple forests loom;

When it went, dark mountains were left in gloom.

The setting moon on rafters sheds its light;

I seem to see your beaming face as bright.

O monstrous billows where water is deep,

Don’t wake up monsters and dragons asleep!
