邓玉宾·《正宫·叨叨令·道情》英译

白云深处青山下，茅庵草舍无冬夏。闲来几句渔樵话，困来一枕葫芦架。您省的也么哥，您省的也么哥? 煞强如风波千丈担惊怕。

Tune: “Chattering Song”

(Dao-dao-ling)

– “Taoist Songs”

Deng Yubin

Deep among white clouds in green mountains

A thatched and humble dwelling with neither winter nor summer;

In leisure I can talk with simple folk,

When tired, sleep under the gourd-vine trellis;

Do you understand this?

Do you see it at all?

It’s better than bearing fear in a world of strife.
