鲁迅·《别诸弟三首·庚子二月》英译

谋生无奈日奔驰，

有弟偏教各别离。

最是令人凄绝处，

孤檠长夜雨来时。

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 

还家未久又离家，

日暮新愁分外加。

夹道万株扬柳树，

望中都化断肠花。

从来一别又经年，

万里长风送客船。

我有一言应记取，

文章得失不由天。

Three Poems in Farewell to His Brothers

Lu Xun

To live one has to rush around all day;

We brothers now are forced by fate to part.

The most depressing thing of all to bear

Is a lonely lamp on a long and rainy night.

I’m scarcely home before I leave again;

New sorrow hits with extra strength at night.

The countless willow trees along the road

Seem to become the symbols of my grief.

Our partings always last a whole year long;

The traveller’s boat is carried far away.

One thing there is I hope you won’t forget:

Success in writing does not come from Heaven.
