严羽·《满江红》英译

日近觚棱，秋渐满、蓬莱双阙。正钱塘江上，潮头如雪。把酒送君天上去，琼玉琚玉珮軝鸿列。丈夫儿、富贵等浮云，看名节。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

The River All Red

 

Yan Yu

 

The sun sheds its departing rays over the titles,

Gradually autumn smiels

And fulfils the two palace towers.

Viewed from the riverside town,

Wine cup in hand, I see you skywards go

To join the lords in row.

A hero proud

Regards wealth and rank as floating cloud

Not so high as honor or renown.

 

The world affair

Is what I care.

But now I’m old,

What can be told?

Sighing in western breeze,

I can’t do as I please.

Unlike a woman shedding tears.

How can I part with my middle-aged peers?

We’ll miss each other, alas!

Another day

When we look into the glass,
