刘琨
朝发广莫门[1]，暮宿丹水山[2]。
左手弯繁弱[3]，右手挥龙渊[4]。
顾瞻望宫阙[5]，俯仰御[6]飞轩[7]。
据鞍[8]长叹息，泪下如流泉。
系马长松下，发鞍高岳头。
烈烈悲风起，泠泠涧水流。
挥手长相谢，哽咽不能言。
浮云为我结，归鸟为我旋。
去家日已远，安知存与亡？
慷慨穷林[9]中，抱膝独摧藏[10]。
麋鹿游我前，猿猴戏我侧。
资粮[11]既乏尽，薇蕨[12]安可食？
揽辔[13]命徒侣，吟啸绝岩中。
君子道微矣，夫子[14]故有穷。
惟昔李骞期[15]，寄在匈奴庭。
忠信反获罪，汉武不见明。
我欲竟[16]此曲，此曲悲且长。
弃置勿重陈，重陈令心伤！

Riding the Wind
Liu Kun
At dawn from northern gate we go;
We reach Riverside Hill at night.
In my left hand I bend my bow;
I brandish my sword in my right.
I look back on the palace high;
My cab runs up and down the mountain.
Leaning on saddle, long I sigh;
My tears stream down like flowing fountain.
My steed unsaddled ‘neath pine-trees,
I tether it atop the hill.
So sad and drear blows autumn breeze;
In cold clear stream flows water chill.
Waving my hand, so sad I feel;
Sobbing, to speak I am not free.
The floating clouds seem to congeal;
The homing birds wheel round for me.
Farther away from home each day,
How long can I still play my part?
Inflamed in the wood on my way,
I stroke my knees with broken heart.
Before me to and fro deer run;
Monkeys and apes play by my side.
Since food resources have been done,
Could we live on ferns far and wide?
I order soldiers, reins in hand;
Among the crags I croon and roar.
His way not followed in this land,
What could be done by Master[1]poor?
I still remember General Li[2]
Captured by Huns with main and might,
And punished for his loyalty;
The emperor had no clear sight.
I try to finish this refrain,
So sad that I put it apart;
So long I wont’t sing it again,
For fear lest it should break my heart.

[2] General Li Ling fought against hopeless odds and was defeated by the Huns and punished by Emperor Wu of Han (156—87BC).
