范成大·《咏河市歌者》英译

岂是从容唱《渭城》，个中当有不平鸣。

可怜日晏忍饥面，强作春深求友声。

A Singer at the Riverside Market

Fan Chengda

How can this be called singing “Song of Weicheng” with ease?

There is in it a note crying against injustice.

A pitiful sight – the day is waning and hunger showing in his face,

Yet he is forcing out a voice in imitation of an oriole’s warbling!
