刘长卿《送严士元》 -经典诗词英译-中英双语赏析

朗读这篇文章

《别严士元》是唐代诗人刘长卿的诗作。此诗通过描写送别友人严士元途中所见景物，感慨宦海沉浮，朋友伤别，感叹怀才不遇，前途渺茫。全诗运用一连串“景语”来叙述事件的进程和人物的行动，即写景是为了叙事抒情，其目的不在描山画水，然而毕竟又是描写了风景，所以画面生动，辞藻美丽，诗意十分浓厚。

送严士元

刘长卿

春风倚棹^[1]阖闾城^[2]，

水国^[3]春寒阴复晴。

细雨湿衣看不见，

闲花落地听无声。

日斜江上孤帆影，

草绿湖南万里情。

君去若逢相识问，

青袍^[4]今已误儒生^[5]。

注释：

[1] 倚棹（zhào）：停船。棹，划船工具，常用以代指船。

[2] 阖闾（hé lǘ）城：苏州城，相传是春秋时吴王阖闾所建。

[3] 水国：水乡。

[4] 青袍：青色的官服，唐代品级最低的官着青色。

[5] 儒生：诗人自称。

Farewell to Yan Shiyuan

Liu Changqing

In vernal breeze outside town walls we stop our oar;

The cloudy weather turns fine on chilly river shore.

Our gowns are wet with drizzling rain although unseen;

The flowers fall at leisure unheard by ears keen.

Your lonely sail sets off at sunset on the stream;

The grass will green for miles the southern shore in dream.

If you meet with some friends who inquire after me,

Tell them the blue-gowned petty official’s carefree.

The poet describes the scenes and discloses his mind to his friend.
