王维·《送宇文太守赴宣城》英译

寥落云外山，<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

迢遥舟中赏。

铙吹发西江，

秋空多清响。

地迥古城芜，

月明寒潮广。

时赛敬亭神，

复解罟师网。

何处寄想思，

南风吹五两。

Accompanying Perfect Yuwen to His Post

Beyond those clouds the hills look few,

Over here from the boat how we love the view!

Upstream sweet send-off tunes were played

So loud and clear in the autumn air.

Way down the old town in weeds is laid;

Cold tides run high to the moon’s bright glare.

They thank their god on a mountain high,

And back to the stream the caught fish free.

This wind, my dear, that makes boat fly,

May it always bring you my fondness for thee!
