辛弃疾·《阮郎归·耒阳道中为张处父推官赋》英译

山前灯火欲黄昏，<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

山头来去云。

鹧鸪声里数家村，

潇湘逢故人。

挥羽扇，整纶巾，

少年鞍马尘。

如今憔悴赋招魂，

儒冠多误身。

The Lovers’ Return

Meeting a Friend on My Way to Luoyang

Xin Qiji

At the foot of the hills lamplights hasten nightfall;

Over the hills clouds come and go like a pall.

Passing the village, I hear the partridge’s homesick song,

I’m glad to meet an old friend on my journey long.

Head cover with silk hood, a feather fan in hand,

While young, our steeds raised dust on the land.

Now languid, we’re in spirits low,

The scholar’s habit has brought us woe.
