次[1]北固山[2]下

王湾[3]

客路[4]青山外,

行舟绿水前。

潮平[5]两岸阔,

风正[6]一帆悬。

海日[7]生残夜[8],

江春[9]入旧年。

乡书[10]何处达?

归雁[11]洛阳边。

注释:

[1] 次:停泊。

[2] 北固山:山名,在今江苏镇江,北临长江,地势险要。

[3] 王湾:公元712年进士。《千家诗》注说:“湾舟行江边,经于北固山下,因作诗曰:江行客路过于青山之下,江舟之行,则于绿水之前。春水未至,潮水平流,两岸之地多阔。西风正而舟帆高挂以催,顺流而东。天未明而放舟,夜已残而日出。地近海隅,日生最早也。时值新正,而立春则在去岁之末,是春色之早也。则吾离家已远,乡书将何所达乎?惟俟归鸿之便,传之于洛阳而已。”这是一首写景诗,几乎通篇对仗,最后转入乡思。译文全用内韵,希望能传达原诗风味。

Passing by the Northern Mountains

Wang Wan

My boat goes by green mountains high,

And passes through the river blue.

The water’s wide at the full tide;

A sail with ease hangs in soft breeze.

The sun brings light born of last night;

New spring invades old year which fades.

How can I send word to my friend?

Homing wild geese, fly westward please!
