毛泽东·《七律·咏贾谊》英译

少年倜傥廊庙才，壮志未酬事堪哀。

胸罗文章兵百万，胆照华国树千台。

雄英无计倾圣主，高节终竟受疑猜。

千古同惜长沙傅，空白汨罗步尘埃。

A Verse with Eight Seven-Character Lines

Ode to Jia Yi

Young and gallant talent for the royal court,

Whose unrealized ambition is regret.

Cherishing papers in his bosom like one million troops,

He treated China heartily by establishing stations up to one thousand.

The hero had no resources to convince the Emperor,

And the lofty person was suspected at last.

For thousands of years everybody feels sorry for Taifu of Changsha,

Who commented at Miluo in vain and treaded in the footprint.
