李贺·《南园十三首（其六）》英译

寻章摘句老雕虫，晓月当帘挂玉弓。

不见年年辽海上，文章何处哭秋风？

South Garden, 13 Poems (6th)

Li He

 

Turning phrases and culling quotes,

A veteran tinkering worm,

Until the morning moon

Hanging over the curtain like a jade bow.

Haven’t you seen that year after year

No writings

Ever crying over the autumn wind

On the seaboard in Liaodong?

 

（任治稷、余正 译）

 

Thirteen Poems from My Southern Garden

No. 6

Li He

 

Seeking a style, culling my phrases,

Grown old carving grubs!

At dawn the moon hangs in my blinds,

A bow of jade.

Can’t you see what is going on, year after year,

By the sea of Liaodong?

Whatever can a writer do

But weep in the autumn wind?

 

（J. D. Frodsham 译）
