The moon understands what it means to be human. 它从不离人而去。它总是悬在那儿,看着,稳稳地,知道我们最光辉和晦暗的时刻,和我们一样善变。每天都是一个新的自己。有时黯淡微弱,有时光芒四射。月亮懂得人是什么样子的。 Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.” 游移不定。孓然孤独。布满了不完美的瑕疵。 ― Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me Tahereh Mafi,《击碎我》 品诗 望月怀远 Looking at the Moon and Longing for One Far Away 张九龄 许渊冲 译 海上生明月, 天涯共此时。 Over the sea grows the moon bright; We gaze on it far, far apart. 情人怨遥夜, 竟夕起相思。 Lovers complain of long, long night; They rise and long for the dear heart. 灭烛怜光满, 披衣觉露滋。 Candle blown out, fuller is light; My coat put on, I'm moist with dew. 不堪盈手赠, 还寝梦佳期。 As I can't hand you moonbeams white, I go to bed to dream of you. § 水调歌头 Watery Prelude Melody 苏轼 林语堂 译
明月几时有? 把酒问青天。 不知天上宫阙, 今夕是何年? 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?' 我欲乘风归去, 又恐琼楼玉宇, 高处不胜寒。 起舞弄清影, 何似在人间。 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. 转朱阁, 低绮户, 照无眠。 不应有恨, 何事长向别时圆? 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? 人有悲欢离合, 月有阴晴圆缺, 此事古难全。 但愿人长久, 千里共婵娟。 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! § 月下独酌 Drinking Alone under the Moon 李白 许渊冲 译 花间一壶酒, 独酌无相亲; 举杯邀明月, 对影成三人。 Amid the flowers, from a pot of wine I drink alone beneath the bright moonshine, I raise my cup to invite the Moon who blends Her light with my Shadow and we’re three friends. 月既不解饮, 影徒随我身; 暂伴月将影, 行乐须及春。 The Moon does not know how to drink her share; In vain my Shadow follows me here and there. Together with them for the time I stay And make merry before spring’s spent away. 我歌月徘徊, 我舞影零乱; 醒时同交欢, 醉后各分散。 永结无情游, 相期邈云汉。 I sing and the Moon lingers to hear my song; My Shadow’s a mess while I dance along. Sober, we three remain cheerful and gay; Drunken, we part and each may go his way. Our friendship will outshine all earthly love, Next time we’ll meet beyond the stars above. 祝大家中秋快乐,今晚能看到又圆又亮的大月亮! 友情提示:月饼再好,也不能当饭吃哦! (编辑:左卓) 中国日报网双语新闻 (ID:chinadaily_mobile) 为您的英语保鲜 |
