唐詩三百首英譯 杜甫:春宿左省

字號:

五言律詩
    杜甫
    春宿左省
    花隱掖垣暮, 啾啾棲鳥過。
    星臨萬戶動, 月傍九霄多。
    不寢聽金鑰, 因風(fēng)想玉珂。
    明朝有封事, 數(shù)問夜如何。

    Du Fu
    A NIGHT-VIGIL IN THE LEFT COURT OF THE PALACE
    Flowers are shadowed, the palace darkens,
    Birds twitter by for a place to perch;
    Heaven's ten thousand windows are twinkling,
    And nine cloud-terraces are gleaming in the moonlight.
    ……While I wait for the golden lock to turn,
    I hear jade pendants tinkling in the wind……
    I have a petition to present in the morning,
    All night I ask what time it is.
