苏轼诗词选

许渊冲译

TheMoon on the West River

西江月

Like dreams pass world affairs untold，
How many autumns in our life are cold?
My corridor is loud with wind-blown leaves at night.
See my brows frown and hair turn white!

世事一场大梦，
人生几度新凉。 
夜来风叶已鸣廊， 
看取眉头鬓上。

Of my poor wine few guests are proud;
The bright moon is oft veiled in cloud.
Who would enjoy with me the mid-autumn moon lonely? 
Wine cup in hand, northward I look only.

酒贱常愁客少，
月明多被云妨。 
中秋谁与共孤光? 
把盏凄然北望。
