湛方生·《帆入南湖》英译

彭蠡纪三江，庐岳主众阜。

白沙净川路，青松蔚岩首。

此水何时流？此山何时有？

人运互推迁，兹器独长久。

悠悠宇宙中，古今迭先后。

Sailing to the South Lake

Chan Fang-sheng

P’eng-li commands three rivers.

Mount Lu masters other hills.

White sand cleans the waterway.

Green pines cover hanging crags.

This water: since when, its flow?

This mountain: since when, its being?

Man’s fate changes from this to that!

These forms alone stay forever.

Within the distant reach of the cosmos,

Past, present, in order, first, last.

（Wai-lim Yip 译）
