名家古诗英译
《水调歌头》名家英译版两首昔胡仔曾说：D中秋词，自东坡《水调歌头》一出，余词尽废。‖认为这是写中秋最好的一首词，此说是一点 也不过分的。这首词仿佛是与明月的对话，在对话中探讨着人生的意义。既有理性，又有情趣，很是耐人寻味。 或许，早在我们从课本上学到《水调歌头》之前，就已经在王菲的歌声中，在各类影视剧中接触到这首词了 吧。 今天，跟着小编一起，来看看这首词的两个英译版
吧。分别是许渊冲先生以及林语堂先生的译作，大家更喜 欢哪一个版本呢？ 《水调歌头》： 明月几时有？把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙、今夕是何年？我欲乘风归去，惟恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒。起舞 弄清影，何似在人间？ 转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨、何事长向别时圆？人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆 缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共蝉娟。 许渊冲先生译作： How long will the full moon appear? Wine cup in hand, I ask the sky。 I do not know what time of the year ‘Would be tonight in the palace on high。 Riding the wind, there I would fly, Yet I‘m afraid the crystalline palace would be Too high and cold for me。 I rise and dance, with my shadow I play。 On high as on earth, would it be as gay? The moon goes round the mansions red Through gauze-draped window soft to shed Her light upon the sleepless bed。 Why then when people part, is the oft full and bright? Men the The moon is bright or dim and she may wax or wane。 There has been nothing perfect since the olden days。 So let us wish that man Will live long as he can! Though miles apart, we‘ll share the beauty she displays。 林语堂先生译作： How rare the moon, so round and clear! With cup in hand, I ask of the blue sky, &I do not know in the celestial sphere What name this festive night goes by?& I want to fly home, riding the air, But fear the ethereal cold up there, The jade and crystal mansions are so high! Dancing to my shadow, I feel no longer the mortal tie。 She rounds the vermilion tower, Stoops to silk-pad doors, Shines on those who sleepless lie。 Why does she, bearing us no grudge, Shine upon our parting, reunion deny? But rare is perfect happiness-The moon does wax, the moon does wane, And so men meet and say goodbye。 I only pray our life be long, And our souls together heavenward fly!诗歌汉译英经典：李白两首名诗英译赏析李白的七言绝句颇富浪漫主义情怀，豪迈奔放，率性而为。许渊冲先生的译作再现了诗作的D意美‖、D音美‖和D形 美‖。 一 《望庐山瀑布》 日照香炉生紫烟，遥望瀑布挂前川。 飞流直下三千尺，疑是银河落九天。 CATARACT ON MOUNT LU The sunlit Censer perk exhal like an upended stream the cataract sounds loud. Its torrent dashes down three tho As if the Silver River fell from azure sky. 赏析： 原诗的第一句中一个D生‖字把静止的香炉峰写得富有了灵性。 许先生同样一个&exhales& D散发出‖或D呼出‖） （ 也将香炉峰人格化了。&a wreath of cloud&形容D紫烟‖，其中名词&wreath&（D花环‖），有D缭绕‖以及D色彩绚丽‖ 的生动意向。 原诗第二句一个D挂‖字，化动为静，呼应上文。而许先生使用动词&upended&（D被倒置‖）来形容远望中的瀑布像 D倒挂‖的飞流，译出了诗词的弦外之音和意境之美。 第三句中，D飞‖和D直下‖描绘出瀑布飞散而降的气势。许先生译文中以&dashes down&作谓语，既合乎主语D倒挂 的飞流‖飞下的走向，又传达出瀑布凌空而落的气势。 最后一句，许先生用动词&fell&，但为虚拟语气，把现实瀑布和想象中的银河自然地联系起来。 四行诗的韵脚比较多，许先生按原诗的节奏，择用 aabb 尾韵。为了压好韵脚，在诗句的语序方面做了必要的调 整。总之，许先生保留了原作的D形美‖和D音美‖，译品接近原诗的自然节奏。 二《黄鹤楼送孟浩然之广陵》 故人西辞黄鹤楼，烟花三月下扬州。 孤帆远影碧空尽，唯见长江天际流。 SEEING MENG HAO-RAN OFF AT YELLOW CRANE TOWER My friend has left the west where the Yellow C For River Town green with willows and red with flowers. His lessening sail is lost in th Where I see but the endless River rolling by. 赏析： 许先生总体构思上采用译气不译字的译作手法，灵活增减词语，变换句式，使得译作画意浓厚。 细节的处理上许先生更是功力深厚。 第一句&My old friend has left the west where the Yellow Crane towers&， 既交代 了友人东行，又道出了黄鹤楼美景，句式上颇为押韵。第二句许先生创造性地运用对称整齐的句式，&green with willows&和&red with flowers&译出了满目的春色。许先生在三、四句的表达方式上做了大胆调整，把D尽‖字前移， 使之更符合英语的表达习惯，同时还添加了几个不影响深层意义且注有韵脚的词语，如&his&，&where I see&，勾 画除了诗人目送行舟，江边怅惘的心情。&His lessening sail is lost in the boundless blue sky&表现出诗人看着小船渐 渐消失在远方时心中的感伤之情。唐宋词中词牌名的英语翻译词是韵文文体之一，又称D曲子词‖，即歌词。它本来是为配乐歌唱而写的诗。由于它是配乐歌唱的，所以每首 词都有或至少曾经有过一个乐谱。每个乐谱都必定属于某种宫调(类似今天的 C 调、G 调之类)，有一定的旋律、 节奏，这些东西的总和就是词调。每种词调都有一个名称(如《西江月》、《清平乐》)，这个名称就叫D词牌‖。 词始于唐，盛于宋，是一种脍炙人口的文学表达形式，历来为人们所钟爱。为把中华文化中这一绮丽的瑰宝译 介到国外，不少译者已进行了大量开拓性的艰辛劳动，其中不乏精美传神叹为观止之作。然而，词的翻译比之 散文小说确似更难，尤其是词牌名的翻译。 尽管就大多数词作来说，词牌与音乐或词中的内容关系不大，作者填词时，只视哪种词调形式更符合自己的需 要，完全可以不去考虑词牌名称的原有含义和原来词曲的内容。因此词牌在一般意义上不过是标明作者依哪一 种现成的曲谱进行填词而已。然而将词牌名译成英文时就不能不在传达词牌的神韵和美感的同时考虑它的历史 来源和反映在其中的格律了。 下面试就词牌的几种常见的英译方法略抒浅见。 一、一般性词牌名的译法一般性词牌名没有什么历史典故，或有，但已无从考证，或取自前人的某个词句，或只是一个风雅的名词而已。 在这种情况下，按字面意思直译成英文，即可较好地保留原文的风格，传达原文的神韵和美感形象。例如： 鹧鸪天 Partridge Sky 踏莎行 Treading On Grass 相见欢 Joy At Meeting 点绦唇 Rouged Lips 满江红 The River All Red 模鱼儿 Groping For Fish 最高楼 The Highest Tower 疏影 Space Shadows 玉楼春 Spring In Jade Pavilion 昼夜乐 Joy Of Day And Night 西江月 The Moon Over The West River 风入松 Wind Through Pines 双双燕 A Pair Of Sparrows 二、&歌&、&词&、&歌头&、&吟&等词牌名的译法 1．常带&歌&、&词&、&子&的词牌，不妨直译成&Song&，既简单明了，又贴切自然。例如： 子夜歌 Midnight Song 洞仙歌 Song Of A Fairy In The Cave 柳枝词 Willow Branch Song 算子 Song Of Divination 天仙子 Song Of Immortal 更漏子 Song Of Water Clock At Night 南歌子 A Southern Song 2．词牌子带&吟&一类的较&歌&、&词&更为典雅，是一种便于吟诵、格调高雅、节奏舒缓的诗体，译成&Chant&， 可以显得庄重端方，因为英语中的&Chant&多指宗教中的赞美诗或圣歌，意思与&吟&很相近。例如： 水龙吟 Water Dragon Chant 瑞龙吟 Auspicious Dragon Chant 3．&歌头&意即前奏或序曲，可译成&Prelude&。例如： 水调歌头 Prelude To Water Melody 三、&令&、&引&、&近&、&慢&等词牌名的译法 有一些词牌末带有&令&、&引&、&近&、&慢&等术语。&令&与酒令有关，是一种比较接近民歌的抒情小曲；&引&集 歌体与诗体于一身，也是这类诗歌诗曲调的演化；&慢&有篇幅较长、语言节奏舒缓、韵脚间隔较大等特点；&近 &有亲昵、浅显的意思，可能与令、引等一样与曲调有关，指一种篇幅较&令&长而又不如&慢&曲那么典雅庄重的 曲调。从字数上讲，大体上说，&令&多半属于&小令&范围，&引&、&近&多半属于&中调&范围，&慢&则绝大多数是& 长调&。所以译成英文时可视具体情况译成&Song&；&Slow Song&；&Slow Tune&或&Slow，Slow Song&。例如； 调笑令 Song Of Flirtation 唐多令 Tang Duo Song 祝英台令 Slow Song Of Zhu Ying Tai 扬州慢 Slow Tune Of Yangzhou 声声慢 Slow, Slow Song 四、&摊破&、&促拍&、&减字&、&偷声&等词牌名的译法 &摊破&(又名&摊声&、&添字&)和&促拍&这两个术语都表示在原调基础上加了字、句。而&减字&、&偷声&则是在原调 基础上减少了字句，而另成新调。&摊破&和&减字&是就字数而言，而&促拍&和&偷声&是就调而言。所以&摊破&可 译成&Lengthened Form&，&促拍&可译成&Quickened Tune&，&减字&则可译成&Shortened Form，&，&偷声&则可译成 &Slowed Tune&。例如： 减字木兰花 Shortened Form Of Lily Magnolia Flowers 摊破浣溪沙 Lengthened Form Of Silk-Washing Stream 五、根源于历史掌故的词牌名的译法 据考证，词调有五种来源：1．边疆民族曲调或域外音乐传入内地的；2．内地民歌曲调；3．乐工歌妓们创制或 改制的曲调；4．宫廷音乐机构或词曲家根据古曲、大曲改制的；5．文人创作的曲子。正因为词调来源广泛， 所以词牌的意思也很复杂。因此，有些词牌是不能根据字面直译的，而应在考释它的来历后再行动笔。 例如：《苏幕遮》原本是指从今天新疆吐鲁番(古高昌)传来的&浑脱&舞曲。&浑脱&是&囊袋&的意思。据说，舞时舞者用油囊装水，互相泼洒，所以唐人又称之为&泼寒胡戏&。表演者为了不使冷水浇到头面，就戴 上一种涂了油的帽子，高昌语叫&苏幕遮&，因而乐曲和后来依曲填出的词就被称为《苏幕遮》了。有人将它译 成&Screened By Southern Curtain&，就是没考虑到它的来源而望文生义译出来的，尤其是&Southern&一词不知从何 而来。据此，我以为直译成&Oiled Hat&未免太俗，不如译成&Water-bag Dance&。这样既点明了是舞曲，又可使读 者领略到舞蹈的内容和形象。 《菩萨蛮》据考证原是今缅甸境内古代罗摩国的乐曲，后经汉族乐工改制而来的。唐苏鹗从《杜阳杂编》说：& 大中(唐宣宗年号)初，女蛮国贡双龙犀……其国．人危髻金冠，缨珞被体，故谓之菩萨蛮。当时倡优遂制菩萨蛮 曲；文人亦往往声其词。&可见《菩萨蛮》中的菩萨与我们的佛祖菩萨(Buddha 或 Buddhist Idol)并无关系，词牌 的意思是&象菩萨似的蛮国人&。有人将其译成&Buddhist Dancers&，真是差之毫厘失之千里!因为形容词&Buddhist& 是&佛的，佛教的&意思，译回成中文就是&佛的舞者&，佛教中有没有舞者尚且不论，光意思就南辕北辙。如译成 &Dancers Like Buddha&或&Buddha-like Dancer 还勉强过得去， 或干脆译为&Song Of The Country Norm&， 既简单又 明了，只是失去了菩萨这个形象。 又如《念奴娇》，念奴为唐玄宗天宝年间一著名歌妓，玄宗时常诏见命歌，曲名本此。如果不知此曲底里，将 它译成&Dreaming Of Her Charm&那就令人捧腹了。 有人将它译成&Charm Of A Maiden Singer， &歌手&和&娇&都译出来了， 可我认为 Maiden 一词用得不恰当。 &Maiden& 一词在英文中是&处女&或&未婚女子&的意思，把它用在古时的歌妓身上未免太圣洁了，不如去掉&Malden&，译成 &Charm Of A Singer&。&Charm&多指女子的妩媚，所以大可不必担心读者会弄错。&Singer&的性别。从这个意义上 讲，&Maiden&也可删去，当然若将其换译成&Woman&也未尝不可。这里还牵涉到专有名词的译法，&念奴&这个 名字对于大多数中国人尚且陌生，更不用说外国人了，译出来也不一定知道，反而妨碍意思的理解，故此处可 撇下不管，用&A Singer&代替即可。类似的情况都可如此处理：如《昭君怨》就可译成&Lament Of A Fair Lady&。 也可用加注的办法，如《虞美人》就可译成&The Beautiful Lady Yu&，这样外国人就知道是一个姓虞的美人了。《葬花吟》中英对照赏析及曹雪芹英文简介葬花吟 (清) 曹雪芹 花谢花飞飞满天，红绡香断有谁怜？ 游丝软系飘春榭，落絮轻沾扑绣帘。 闺中女儿惜春暮，愁绪满怀无处诉。 手把花锄出绣帘，忍踏落花来复去。 柳丝榆荚自芳菲，不管桃飘与李飞。 桃李明年能再发，明岁闺中知是谁？ 三月香巢初垒成，梁间燕子太无情！ 明年花发虽可啄，却不道人去梁空巢也倾！ 一年三百六十日，风刀霜剑严相逼。 明媚鲜妍能几时，一朝飘泊难寻觅。 花开易见落难寻，阶前愁杀葬花人。 独把花锄偷洒泪，洒上空枝见血痕。 Song of the Burial of Flowers Cao Xueqin [Qing Dynasty] Flowers fade and fall and fly about up in the sky, But who pities the loss of your fragrance when you die? Like gossamer you float and land on pavilions, With your fallen petals clung soft to fine curtains. In my boudoir I sigh over the close of spring, But there‘s no way to express my sorrowful feeling. Spade in hand, I go out from under my fine curtain, To and fro on fallen petals, how can I bear treading? Willow twigs and elm buds send sweet scents as they may, Who cares when peach and plum petals are in decay? Next year peach and plum trees will be in bloom again, But who will be the master of my boudoir then? 杜鹃无语正黄昏，荷锄归去掩重门。 青灯照壁人初睡，冷雨敲窗被未温。 怪侬底事倍伤神，半为怜春半恼春。 怜春忽至恼忽去，至又无语去不闻。 昨宵庭外悲歌奏，知是花魂与鸟魂？ 花魂鸟魂总难留，鸟自无语花自羞。 愿侬此日生双翼，随花飞到天尽头。 天尽头！何处有香丘？ 未若锦囊收艳骨，一杯净土掩风流。 质本洁来还洁去，强于污淖陷渠沟。 尔今死去侬收葬，未卜侬身何日丧？ 侬今葬花人笑痴，他年葬侬知是谁？ 试看春残花渐落，便是红颜老死时。 一朝春尽红颜老，花落人亡两不知！In March lunar swallows have got their nests ready, They on the beam seem to be those without mercy. Next year in their flight, fresh flowers they may peck, though, All that they and I have will be lost, they never know. There are three hundred and sixty days in one year, With you the elements of nature are severe. Time is not long for you to be bright and charming, Your trace and track are hard to find in your drifting. You are easy to see when open but hard when fallen, Before the stairs I am worried where to find your remains. Against the spade I lean and in secret weep sudden, Splashed on your bare branches are my tears like bloodstains. The cuckoo ceases its warbling at twilight, With my spade I return and shut the doors tight. I go to bed with a lone oil lamp still shining, My quilt is not warm when a cold rain is falling. I feel at heart it is a matter quite nerve-racking, For I like spring or I feel sad over its leaving. Spring I love and my sorrow repair at a fast pace, They come silent and go without leaving a trace. Last night beyond pavilions sad song seemed rising, Was it the souls of flowers or birds that were singing? It is always hard to ask their souls to stay behind, That birds are silent and flowers feel ashamed, I find. I wish to have two wings under my arms to fly, After you unto the farthest end of the sky. At the farthest end of the sky, Where can I find the grave of your fragrance lie? Better in silk to shroud your petals fair, With a handful of clean earth as your attire. For pure you have come and pure you repair, Lest you fall into some foul ditch or mire. I hold a burial when you die today, But there‘s no telling when I pass away. Others laugh at me that have buried thee, Who will be the one that shall bury me? At the farthest end of the sky, Where can I find the grave of my fragrance lie? The end of spring makes flowers fall one by one, It‘s also the time when beauty meets its doom. Once beauty is carried to its very tomb, Both beauty and flowers perish known to none. The poet and the background note: Cao Xueqin (? ~1764) was one of the most famous novelists and poets in the history of Chinese literature. Born in an influential Manchurian bureaucratic family, he had high cultural accomplishments and outstanding competence for art. During the reign of the Qing Emperor Yongzheng, his father was involved in a political struggle within the ruling class, defeated, so his family suffered a heavy blow both politically and financially. Thereafter, his family circumstances deteriorated. However, adversity brought talent in return. It was when he was plunged in such an embarrassing circumstance that he had the chance to contact himself with the underprivileged of the then society, thus giving him specific, intense experience, and enabling himself to see better of life. He spent as was recorded, at least ten years busying himself with the production of the novel The Dream of the Red Chamber, in which, through a detailed description of the rise and fall of an influential noble family of that time, he created a great number of typical characters, conducted in-depth analyses and criticisms of the then evil society and, at the same time, sang ebullient praises of both the male and female youths who were considered heretical in pursuit of love. The Dream of the Red Chamber is seen as a great realistic masterpiece among the Chinese classic novels. But the novel reveals a kind of pessimism and sentimentalism past cure. With the tone of Lin Daiyu, one of the heroines in The Dream of the Red Chamber, the author Cao Xueqin blended human feelings with nature in this novel as if in confirmation of man‘s helplessness in the presence of the change of nature and the flight of time. As is known to all that have read it, Lin is a sentimentalist who, taking as part of her life the enjoyment of flowers and moonlight, tends to shed tears at the sight of flowers falling, and feel sad when finding the moon waning. In fact, Flowers bloom and then flowers die, There‘s no need for her to give a sigh. It is the very law of nature, she ought not to take pains to bother. Relentless away time flies,over the natural loss she cries. She was born frail and tender, or because she‘s a teenager. The author intended his novel to be a tragedy, around the theme of which he spread all the plots in it. Here, in this poem he had his heroine Lin utter his aspirations to achieve the artistic effect. 汉译英佳译赏析：《朱子家训》翻译欣赏 朱子家训是我国古时的家庭礼教文化精华，使人通人事，明事理，而张香桐院士的译文无论从用词，达意，音韵 等方面都堪称翻译的典范，现摘抄数篇供大家欣赏。 （1）一粥一饭，当思来之不易。半丝半缕，恒念物力维艰。 The growing of rice and of grain Think

For although this is ,in the sense I have already indicated, an 'unfinished' novel, it was written (and written) by a great artist with his very life blood. I have therefore assumed that whatever I find in it is there for a purpose and must be dealt with somehow or other, I cannot pretend always to have done so successfully, but if I can convey to the reader even a fraction of the pleasure this Chinese novel given me , I shall not have lived in vain.& 中国曹雪芹英国霍克思 撰写《红楼梦》这部旷世巨著的曹雪芹，堪称中国文学史的奇才，数十年来无数作家学者都把这部经典名作 奉为圭臬，推崇备至。 70 年代著名学者胡菊人先生在其专栏里就写过这样一段话： D在技巧上我们可以说自清末至'五.四'直至今天，在中国而言，无人能与曹雪芹并肩。他的技巧，尤其在肌理 上，细心研究，令人惊骇，以为是神鬼写下的文墨。‖ 曹雪芹如果九泉下有知，欣悉二百余年后西洋竟然出了另一位奇才，连大学教授的高职也辞去，在家中孜孜 不倦十五载，把他的作品全部译成蟹形文字，介绍到西方国家，必定会含笑引为同调！ 这位西洋奇才就是前英国伦敦大学的教授霍克思(David Hawks.) 这里介绍霍克思译红楼梦， 是希望大学翻译系的同学能观摩汉英翻译的极品， 同时更为望各位忠实读者能欣 赏地道中文与地道英语的讲写之法，从而提高研习中英文的兴趣。 且看曹雪芹怎样写林黛玉细读《西厢记》的： D从头看去，越看越爱，不顿饭时，已看了好几出了。但觉词句警入，余香满口。一面看了只管出神。心内 还默默记诵。D曹氏这种芊绵绮丽的文字，同样值得默默记诵。大家不妨试译这段短文，下文我会摘录霍氏的英 译供你们观赏研习。 妙词通戏语艳曲惊芳心 上文引述了《红楼梦》第二十三回中的一小节，描写的是林黛玉细读《西厢记》。 第二十三回的回目是： D西厢记妙词通戏语牡丹亭艳曲惊芳心‖ 各位觉得是不是对得很工整呢？ 其实《红楼梦》书中一百二十个回目都对得很贴切，展卷前单看这些回目已经是一种艺术享受了。 现在请大家欣赏曹雪芹的生花妙笔，然后研习霍克斯的精彩妙译：D从头看去，越看越爱，不顿饭时，已看了好几出了。但觉词句警入，余香满口。一面看了，只管出神，心 内还默默记诵。‖ &The more she read, the more she liked it, and before very long she had read several acts, She felt the power of the words and their lingering fragrance. Long after she had finished reading. When she had laid down the book and was sitting there rapt and silent, the lines continued to ring on in her head.& 原文通畅易晓，雅丽芊绵，是地地道道的好文字；译文亦步亦趋，简洁流畅，从平凡中见功力，更觉难能可 贵。 希望你们把原文译文反复熟诵，探究中英文的地道写法。下文开始提供对白英译，希望能协助大家提高英语 会话的能力。 灵心妙手 译笔一流 《红楼梦》是中国文学园地百花丛中的一朵奇葩。它塑造了众多独特鲜明的人物，是一部不朽的艺术珍品。 书中的主要角色，如贾宝玉、林黛玉、薛宝钗、王熙凤、刘姥姥等都宛如活在我们的心中。可见曹雪芹刻画人物， 功力深邃。 谈到曹雪芹的艺术表现才华，不得不联系到《红楼梦》的对白写法。对白写得活泼生动是人物对比强烈、黑 白分明时，更容易在读者心中产生鲜明的印象，因为对白中所用的字眼和语气最能表露出人物的神态。 我们先欣赏第十一回，凤姐与尤氏谈论秦可卿的病情： D凤姐听了，眼圈儿红了一会子，方说道：'天有不测风云，人有旦夕祸福，这点年纪，倘或因这病上有个长 短，人生在世，还有什么趣儿呢！‖ 且欣赏英国名教授 David Hawks (霍克思)怎样运用灵心妙手，妥贴译成合乎惯用法的地道英文： &Xi feng's eyes became moist and for a moment she was too overcome to speak. ' I know &the weather and human life are both unpredictable,&' she said at last,'but she's only a child still. If anything should happen to her as a result of this illness, I think all the fun would go out of life!'& 经典名著对白地道英语译法 霍克思是一位汉学家，精通中国古典文学，译过《离骚》、杜甫诗，通晓宋词、元典。他盛年时已出任牛津 大学中国文学讲座教授，但他竟然薄此而不为，花了十多个寒暑闭户埋首英译《红楼梦》。 霍克思把书名译为 The Story of the Stone,摒弃了一直沿用的 The Dream of the Red Chamber,是因为手抄本一 向用《石头记》为书名。 我们现在来欣赏霍克思翻译的贾宝玉与袭人的一段对话： D宝玉听了这话，见她脸上气色非往日可比，便笑道：?怎么又动了气呢？‘袭人冷笑道：?我那里敢动气呢？ 只是你从今别进这屋子了。横竖有人服待你，再不必支使我，我仍旧服侍老太太去。‘‖ &The expression on her face as she uttered these words was angrier than he had ever seen her look before. DHe laughed. &'Oh dear! Are you in a rage again?& &Aroma laughed mirthlessly. &'It's not for the likes of me to get into rages, But I wish that from now on you would stop coming into this room, After all, you have got people to wait on you elsewhere . You don't really need my services.

In the golden censer the burning incense is dying away. It is again time for the lovely Double-Ninth F The coolness of midnight penetrates my screen of sheer silk and chills my pillow of jade. After drinking wine at twilight under the chrysanthemum hedge, My sleeves are perfumed by the fragrance of the plants. Oh, I cannot say it is not endearing, Only, when the west wind stir the curtain, I see that I am more gracile than the yellow flowers. 醉花阴 薄雾浓云愁永昼， 瑞脑销金兽。 佳节又重阳， 玉枕纱橱， 半夜凉初透。 东篱把酒黄昏后， 有暗香盈袖。 莫道不消魂， 帘卷西风， 人比黄花瘦！ 李清照《醉花阴》赏析这首词是李清照前期的怀人之作。李婚后不久，丈夫赵明诚便D 负笈远游‖，深闺寂寞，她深深思念着远行 的丈夫。这年，时届重九，人逢佳节倍思亲，便写了这首词寄给赵明诚。 D薄雾浓云愁永昼，瑞脑销金兽‖，这两句借助室内外秋天的景物描写，表现了词人白日孤独寂寞的愁怀。D永 昼‖指漫长的白天，D永‖字便可见词人内心的无聊愁苦。D瑞脑‖，香料名，又叫龙脑香。D金兽‖，铜制的兽形熏 香炉。这两句的意思是：从清晨稀薄的雾气到傍晚浓厚的云层，这漫长的白昼，阴沉沉的天气真使人愁闷。那雕 着兽形的铜香炉里，龙脑香已渐渐烧完了，可心中的愁思为何总缕缕不绝呢？可见，这两句虽为景语，却句句含 情，构成一种凄清惨淡的氛围，有力地衬托出思妇百无聊赖的闲愁。 D佳节又重阳，玉枕纱厨，半夜凉初透‖，这三句写出了词人在重阳佳节孤眠独寝、夜半相思的凄苦之情。D玉 枕‖，瓷枕。D纱厨‖，即碧纱厨，以木架罩以绿色轻纱，内可置榻，用以避蚊。常言道：D每逢佳节倍思亲‖，今 日里D佳节又重阳‖，词人又怎能不更加思念远方的丈夫呢？一个D又‖字，便充满了寂寞、怨恨、愁苦之感，更何 况，玉枕、纱厨往昔是与丈夫与共的，可如今自己却孤眠独寝，触景生情，自然是柔肠寸断心欲碎了。显然，这 里的D凉‖不只是肌肤所感之凉意，更是心灵所感之凄凉。 D东篱把酒黄昏后，有暗香盈袖‖，这两句写出了词人在重阳节傍晚于东篱下菊圃前把酒独酌的情景，衬托出 词人无语独酌的离愁别绪。D东篱‖，是菊圃的代称，语出陶诗D采菊东篱下，悠然见南山。‖D暗香‖，菊花的幽香。 D盈袖‖，因饮酒时衣袖挥动，带来的香气充盈衣袖。重阳佳节，把酒赏菊，本来极富情趣，然而丈夫远游，词人 孤寂冷清，离愁别恨涌上心头，即便D借酒销愁‖，亦是D愁更愁‖了。又哪有心情欣赏这D暗香浮动‖的菊花呢？ D莫道不销魂，帘卷西风，人比黄花瘦‖，这三句直抒胸臆，写出了抒情主人公憔悴的面容和愁苦的神情。D销 魂‖极喻相思愁绝之情。D帘卷西风‖即D西风卷帘‖，暗含凄冷之意。这三句工稳精当，是作者艺术匠心之所在。 先以D销魂‖点神伤，再以D西风‖点凄景，最后落笔结出一个D瘦‖字。在这里，词人巧妙地将思妇与菊花相比，展 现出两个迭印的镜头：一边是萧瑟的秋风摇撼着羸弱的瘦菊，一边是思妇布满愁云的憔悴面容，情景交融，创设 出了一种凄苦绝伦的境界。 全词开篇点D愁‖，结句言D瘦‖。D愁‖是D瘦‖的原因，D瘦‖是D愁‖的结果。贯穿全词的愁绪因D瘦‖而得到了最 集中最形象的体现。可以说，全篇画龙，结句点睛，D龙‖画得巧，D睛‖点得妙，巧妙结合，相映成辉，创设出了 D情深深，愁浓 浓‖ 的情境杜牧《清明》英译赏析：翻译大师将“清明、断魂和牧童”传神的翻译成英文清明时节语纷纷――杜牧的原诗：D清明时节雨纷纷/ 路上行人欲断魂/ 借问酒家何处有/ 牧童遥指杏花村‖。 这首诗有多种英译版本，要想把这首诗翻译给外国人，一定要把这首诗中的几个关键词：D清明‖、D断魂‖、D牧 童‖――传神地翻译出来。 首先是遇到的问题是什么是“清明”？ 简便的方法当然是用拼音 Qingming，比如徐忠杰先生、陈君朴先生就是这么翻译的。如果不用音译，还有什么 好的方法来翻译D清明‖呢？吴钧陶先生、唐一鹤先生将D清明‖意译为 The Pure Brightness Day。许渊冲先生穿越 了D清明‖字面本身，直接点明其内涵（The Day of Mourning for the Dead）。蔡廷干先生则别具一格地借用了英语 D万圣节‖（All Saints' Day）将D清明节‖翻译为 All Souls' Day。 接下来要演绎的是“断魂”的境界 陈君朴先生翻译为 broken-hearted（心碎）；许渊冲（heart is going to break）、吴君陶先生（heart lost in dismay） 也都是用 heart 来做文章。唐一鹤先生用名词 sorrow（悲伤）来代指D断魂‖，蔡廷干先生用了一个副词 sadly（The men and women sadly move along the way）。杨宪益、戴乃迭先生（古诗苑汉英译丛《唐诗》，外文出版社 2001） 则用了两个形容词词 gloomy（阴郁的）、miserable（悲惨的）来表述。 至于一个“牧童”，各位翻译大师是这样各自表述的： 徐忠杰――peasantlad（农民小伙儿） 陈君朴――Abuffaloboy（水牛娃） 吴钧陶――cowboy（牛仔）蔡廷干――herdboy（牧童） 许渊冲――cowherd（放牛娃） 唐一鹤、孙大雨――shepherd（牧羊人） 杨宪益、戴乃迭――shepherdboy（牧羊童） 谷歌――cowboy（牛仔）清明节最有名古诗《清明》英文版，数位英语翻译大师英译版清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。清明节就要来了，整理了各英语翻译家翻译的《清明》，如吴钧陶、许渊 冲、 蔡廷干、杨宪益及戴乃迭等等。 《清明》 (唐)杜牧 清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。 借问酒家何处有？牧童遥指杏花村。 吴钧陶英译《清明》((韵式 aaba) It drizzles thick and fast on the Pure Brightness Day, I travel with my heart lost in dismay。 &Is there a public house somewhere, cowboy?& He points at Apricot Village faraway。 许渊冲英译《清明》((韵式 aabb) A drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning D The mourner's heart is going to break on his way。 Where can a wineshop be found to drown his sad hours?

Fleeting our scented chariots and stately steeds. Fine steeds and carved cabs sprea Phoenix-cooing flutes resounding, Music vib Jade-pot-flashing lanterns revolving, The moon sheds its full light Dolphins and dragons are dancing away-While fish and dragon lanterns dance all night. All night long it‘s bright as day. In gold-thread dress, with moth or willow ornaments, See the grain moths silvern, the tassels golden? Giggling, she melts into the throng with trails of scents See the snow-clad willow twigs of the maidens But in the crowd once and again Passing with laughter gurgling, fragrance floating? I look for her in vain. Far and near, among the crowds surging, When all at once I turn my head, Tens of thousands of rounds for one I‘ I find her there where lantern light is dimly shed.Only on a glance cast backward do I behold: There she is, where lights are burning so low! （3）温哥华陶先生译，简称陶译 night lights a thousand trees in bloom a shower of stars blown by the east wind ornate carriages drawn by gallant horses filled the boulevards with a sweet fragrance voice of the magic flute flowingluster of the jade white urn turning all night the fishes and the dragons danced butterflies, willows, charms of gold gone -- that angelic laughter, that subtle perfume in the crowds for her I‘d searched a thousand times perchance I turned and there she was where lights were few and dim欧阳修&蝶恋花&古诗词汉译英：庭院深深深几许 英语译文 by 许渊冲《蝶恋花》这是深闺佳人的伤春词。作者以含蕴的笔法描写了幽居深院的少妇伤春及怀人的复杂思绪和怨情。 这首词以生动的形象、清浅的语言，含蓄委婉、深沉细腻地表现了闺中思妇复杂的内心感受，是闺怨词中传诵千 古的名作。 欧阳修《蝶恋花》 庭院深深深几许？杨柳堆烟，帘幕无重数。玉勒雕鞍游冶处，楼高不见章台路。 雨横风狂三月暮，门掩黄昏，无计留春住。泪眼问花花不语，乱红飞过秋千去。 注：也有人考证这首词是五代南唐冯延已（己或巳）的作品，但与欧阳修时代较近的李清照认为这是欧九的作品 （欧阳修排行第九）。 【翻译】 上片写浓雾弥漫的的早晨。女主人身处幽深的庭院，帘幕无重数，周围烟柳丛丛簇簇，孤独寂寞之情可以想见。 她为何忧愁呢？是因为她猜想薄情郎这时又骑马到歌楼妓馆寻欢作乐去了。 下片写狂风暴雨的黄昏。 三月的暮春 天气，风狂雨骤，又是黄昏时刻，女主人只得掩门独守空房，不禁发出惜春的哀叹，所惜的既是春光，也是她的 青春年华。因花而有泪，因泪而问花，花不仅不语，反而纷纷飘落，不去理会她，还有意似的飘飞过秋千而去。 人越伤心，花越恼人，语浅意深，自然浑成，耐人寻味。 《蝶恋花》英语翻译 by 许渊冲 TUNE：BUTTERFLIES LINGERING OVER FLOWERS Deep,deep the courtyard where he is,so deep It‘s veiled by smokelike willows heap on heap, By curtain on courtain and screen on screen.

I hang them within my red silk vest, So grateful I‘m for your good will. You see my house o‘erlooks the garden and My husband guards the palace, halberd in hand. I know your heart as noble as the sun in the skies, But I have sworn to serve my husband all my life. With your twin pears I send back two tears from my eyes.
