唐诗三百首英译 韩翃：酬程延秋夜即事见赠

五言律诗

韩翃

酬程延秋夜即事见赠

长簟迎风早， 空城澹月华。

星河秋一雁， 砧杵夜千家。

节候看应晚， 心期卧亦赊。

向来吟秀句， 不觉已鸣鸦。

AN AUTUMN EVENING HARMONIZING CHENG QIN'S POEM

While a cold wind is creeping under my mat，

And the city's naked wall grows pale with the autumn moon，

I see a lone wild-goose crossing the River of Stars，

And I hear， on stone in the night， thousands of washing mallets……

But， instead of wishing the season， as it goes，

To bear me also far away，

I have found your poem so beautiful

That I forget the homing birds.
