雙語詩歌翻譯|孟浩然-《夏日南亭懷辛大》

《夏日南亭懷辛大》是唐代詩人孟浩然的作品。此詩描繪了夏夜乘涼的悠閑自得，抒發(fā)了詩人對老友的懷念。開頭寫夕陽西下與素月東升，為納涼設(shè)景；三、四句寫沐后納涼，表現(xiàn)閑情適意；五、六句由嗅覺繼續(xù)寫納涼的真實感受；七、八句寫由境界清幽想到彈琴，想到“知音”，從納涼過渡到懷人；最后寫希望友人能在身邊共度良宵而生夢。全詩寫景狀物細(xì)膩入微，語言流暢自然，情境渾然一體，詩味醇厚，意韻盎然，給人一種清閑之感。

孟浩然·《夏日南亭懷辛大》

山光忽西落，池月漸東上。

散發(fā)乘夕涼，開軒臥閑敞。

荷風(fēng)送香氣，竹露滴清響。

欲取鳴琴彈，恨無知音賞。

感此懷故人，中宵勞夢想。

A Reverie in a Summer-House（Charles Budd 譯）

Meng Haoran

The daylight fades behind the Western Mountains,

And in the east is seen the rising moon,

Which faintly mirrored in the garden fountains

Foretells that night and dreams are coming soon.

With window open-hair unloosed and flowing

I lie in restful ease upon my bed:

The evening breeze across the lilies blowing

With fragrant coolness falls upon my head.

And in the solemn stillness—all prevailing,

The fall of dewdrops from the tall bamboos—

Which grow in graceful rows along the railing—

Sounds through the silence soft as dove's faint coos.

On such an eve as this I would be singing,

And playing plaintive tunes upon the lute,

And thus to mind old friends and pleasures bringing;

But none are here to join with harp and flute!

So in a pleasant stillness I lie dreaming

Of bygone days and trusty friends of old,

Among whom Sin-tze's happy face is beaming;

I would my thoughts could now to him be told.

In Dreamland（Herbert A. Giles 譯）

Men Haoran

The sun has set behind the western slope,

The eastern moon lies mirrored in the pool;

With streaming hair my balcony I ope,

And stretch my limbs out to enjoy the cool.

Loaded with lotus-scent the breeze sweeps by,

Clear dripping drops from tall bamboos I hear,

I gaze upon my idle lute and sigh:

Alas no sympathetic soul is near!

And so I doze, the while before mine eyes

Dear friends of other days in dream-clad forms arise.
