王维·《送张五归山》英译

送君尽惆怅，复送何人归？<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

几日同携手，一朝先拂衣。

东山有茅屋，幸为扫荆扉。

当亦谢官去，岂令心事违。

Seeing Zhang Yin Off to His Mountain Seclusion

It cannot be harder to see you go!

Who’s the next to quit and hide?

We’re together only a few days ago,

How soon with a flick of your sleeve you ride

To your thatched hut on a quiet hill.

O but to clean your brambled door!

I, too, should from my post withdraw

To do justice to my long-cherished will.
