雙語詩歌翻譯|牛嶠-《夢(mèng)江南·其二》

這首詞借鴛鴦之情深篤定來反襯負(fù)心人之無情，用鴛鴦的兩兩不離不棄流露對(duì)負(fù)心人的譴責(zé)，同時(shí)也體現(xiàn)出主人公對(duì)情感背叛者的憤恨，用語淺顯而情意真切。宋姜白石《白石詞》：“牛松卿《望江南》詞，詠鴛鴦，是詠物而不滯物者也。詞家當(dāng)法此?！?/p>

牛嶠·《夢(mèng)江南·其二》

紅繡被，

兩兩間鴛鴦。

不是鳥中偏愛爾，

為緣交頸睡南塘，

全勝薄情郎。

"Dreaming of the South"（2） (Meng chiang-nan)

Niu Chiao

On a red embroidered quilt,

Mandarin ducks parade, pair after pair.

It isn't that I like them better than other birds,

But throats entwined, dozing on the southern bank,

They care more than that heartless man!

（Lois Fusek 譯）
