杜甫·《悲陈陶》英译

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

孟冬十郡良家子，

血作陈陶泽中水。

野旷天清无战声，

四万义军同日死。

群胡归来血洗箭，

仍唱胡歌饮都市。

都人回面向北啼，

日夜更望官军至。

Lament on the Defeat at Chentao

In early winter noble sons of household good

Blended with water in Chentao mires their pure blood.

No more war cry beneath the sky on the vast plain;

In one day forty thousand loyal warriors slain.

The enemy came back with blood-stained arrows long;

They drank in market place and shouted barbarous song.

Our countrymen turned north their faces bathed in tears;

Day and night they expect the royal cavaliers.
