辛弃疾·《千年调》英译

开山径得石壁，因名曰苍壁。事出望外，意天之所赐邪，喜而赋。

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

左手把青霓，右手挟明月。吾使丰隆前导，叫开阊阖。周游上下，径入寥天一。览县圃，万斛泉，千丈石。 

钧天广乐，燕我瑶之席。帝饮予觞甚乐，赐汝苍璧。嶙峋突兀，正在一丘壑。余马怀，仆夫悲，下恍惚。

Song of a Thousand Years

The Green Rock

Xin Qiji

In my left hand I hold the rainbow bright

And I bring down the moon with my right.

I order the Thunder God to go before

To open for me the celestial door.

I go up and down, far and nigh,

Become one with the only and lonely sky.

I see the hanging mountain

And the inexhaustible fountain,

And the green rock of a thousand feet high.

Hearing heavenly music played,

I’m feasted by the Pool of jade.

Our Lord invites me to wine

And gives me a mini-cliff divine.

Rugged and steep,

It epitomizes mountain high and valley deep.

My horse won’t leave,

My servant seems to grieve.

Awake, I don’t believe.
