唐诗三百首英译 刘长卿：饯别王十一南游

五言律诗

刘长卿

饯别王十一南游

望君烟水阔， 挥手泪沾巾。

飞鸟没何处？ 青山空向人。

长江一帆远， 落日五湖春。

谁见汀洲上， 相思愁白苹？

Liu Changing

ON SEEING WANG LEAVE FOR THE SOUTH

Toward a mist upon the water

Still I wave my hand and sob，

For the flying bird is lost in space

Beyond a desolate green mountain……

But now the long river， the far lone sail，

five lakes， gleam like spring in the sunset；

And down an island white with duckweed

Comes the quiet of communion.
