Liu Rushi: Dream of the South: Thinking of Someone ~ 柳如是·《梦江南·怀人·其七》 with English Translations

Listen to this article

柳如是(1618年~1664年),本名杨爱,字如是,又称河东君,因读宋朝辛弃疾《贺新郎》中:“我见青山多妩媚,料青山见我应如是”,故自号如是。浙江嘉兴人 。与马湘兰、卞玉京、李香君、董小宛、顾横波、寇白门、陈圆圆同称“秦淮八艳”。后嫁有“学贯天人”、“当代文章伯”之称的明朝大才子钱谦益为侧室。明末清初女诗人。


柳如是·《梦江南·怀人·其七》

人去也,

人去碧梧阴。

未信赚人肠断曲,

却疑误我字同心。

幽怨不须寻。

Dream of the South:

Thinking of Someone

Liu Rushi

VII

He is gone,

Gone from the shadow of the green wutong tree.

I can’t believe this has earned us a heartbreaking tune,

Still I wonder why our love has failed.

Whence this brooding grief? No need to look.

(Kang-I Sun Chang 译)
