李清照·《夏日绝句》英译

生当作人杰，死亦为鬼雄。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

至今思项羽，不肯过江东。

A Jueju Written in Summer

Li Qingzhao

One ought to live as a hero in this world

And after death a hero remain.

The memory of Xiang Yu is cherished to this day

Because he chose to die, not to cross the river, after his defeat.
