唐诗三百首英译 崔涂：孤雁

五言律诗

崔涂

孤雁

几行归塞尽， 片影独何之？

暮雨相呼失， 寒塘欲下迟。

渚云低暗渡， 关月冷相随。

未必逢矰缴， 孤飞自可疑。

Cui Tu

A SOLITARY WILDGOOSE

Line after line has flown back over the border.

Where are you headed all by yourself？

In the evening rain you call to them ——

And slowly you alight on an icy pond.

The low wet clouds move faster than you

Along the wall toward the cold moon.

……If they caught you in a net or with a shot，

Would it be worse than flying alone？
