Su Shi: Inscription on Huichong's Painting of a Spring River ~ 《惠崇春 江晓景》 苏轼 with English Translations

《惠崇春江晓景》是宋代大文豪苏轼的作品。这首题画诗既保留了画面的形象美，也发挥了诗的长处。诗人用他饶有风味、虚实相间的笔墨，将原画所描绘的春色展现得那样令人神往。在根据画面进行描写的同时，苏轼又有新的构思，从而使得画中的优美形象更富有诗的感情和引人入胜的意境。

《惠崇春江晓景》 苏轼

竹外桃花三两枝，春江水暖鸭先知。
蒌蒿满地芦芽短，正是河豚欲上时。

Inscription on Huichong’s Painting of a Spring River
Su Shi

Beyond the bamboo grove, several peach trees are in bloom;
The river is warming, which the ducks are first to know.
Beach wormwood is teeming, the asparagus just sprouting,
Ah, the season when globefish are coming upstream!

Cao Zhi: The Goddess of the Luo ~ 曹植 《洛神赋》 with English Translations

小编导读：《洛神赋》是三国时期才子曹植的作品。《洛神赋》是曹植模仿战国时宋玉《神女赋》对楚王梦巫山神女之事而作，虚构自己在洛水边与洛神相遇的情节，全篇想象丰富，描写细腻，词采流丽，对洛神的描绘，诸如“婉若游龙”、“秾纤得衷，修短合度”、“气若幽兰”等，皆可见巫山神女的影子。此赋“感宋玉对楚王神女之事”是对楚辞中以男女关系譬喻君臣关系的继承，其亦屈子之志也。另一说为感甄氏而作。 曹植 《洛神赋》 黄初三年，余朝京师，还济洛川。古人有言，斯水之神，名曰宓妃。感宋玉对楚王神女之事，遂作斯赋。其辞曰： 余从京域，言归东藩。背伊阙，越轘辕，经通谷，陵景山。日既西倾，车殆马烦。尔乃税驾乎蘅皋，秣驷乎芝田，容与乎阳林，流眄乎洛川。于是精移神骇，忽焉思散。俯则末察，仰以殊观，睹一丽人，于岩之畔。乃援御者而告之曰：“尔有觌于彼者乎？彼何人斯？若此之艳也！”御者对曰：“臣闻河洛之神，名曰宓妃。然则君王所见，无乃日乎？其状若何？臣愿闻之。” 余告之曰：“其形也，翩若惊鸿，婉若游龙。荣曜秋菊，华茂春松。仿佛兮若轻云之蔽月，飘飘兮若流风之回雪。远而望之，皎若太阳升朝霞；迫而察之，灼若芙蕖出渌波。襛纤得衷，修短合度。肩若削成，腰如约素。延颈秀项，皓质呈露。芳泽无加，铅华弗御。云髻峨峨，修眉联娟。丹唇外朗，皓齿内鲜，明眸善睐，靥辅承权。瑰姿艳逸，仪静体闲。柔情绰态，媚于语言。奇服旷世，骨像应图。披罗衣之璀粲兮，珥瑶碧之华琚。戴金翠之首饰，缀明珠以耀躯。践远游之文履，曳雾绡之轻裾。微幽兰之芳蔼兮，步踟蹰于山隅。于是忽焉纵体，以遨以嬉。左倚采旄，右荫桂旗。壤皓腕于神浒兮，采湍濑之玄芝。 余情悦其淑美兮，心振荡而不怡。无良媒以接欢兮，托微波而通辞。愿诚素之先达兮，解玉佩以要之。嗟佳人之信修，羌习礼而明诗。抗琼珶以和余兮，指潜渊而为期。执眷眷之款实兮，惧斯灵之我欺。感交甫之弃言兮，怅犹豫而狐疑。收和颜而静志兮，申礼防以自持。 The Goddess of the Luo Cao Zhi In the third year of the Huangchu (1) era, I attended court at the capital and then crossed the Luo River (2) to begin my journey home. Men in olden times used t...

《兰亭集序》林语堂 with English Translations

《兰亭集序》林语堂 版英文译文 永和九年，岁在癸丑。暮春之初，会于会稽山阴之兰亭，修禊事也。群贤毕至，少长咸集。此地有崇山峻岭，茂林修竹，又有清流激湍，映带左右,引以为流觞曲水，列坐其次。虽无丝竹管弦之盛，一觞一咏，亦足以畅叙幽情。 It is the ninth year of Yonghe (A.C.353), also known as the year of Guichou in terms of the Chinese lunar calendar.On one of those late spring days, we gather at the Orchid Pavilion, which is located in Shanyin County, Kuaiji Prefecture, for dispelling bad luck and praying for good fortune.The attendees of the gathering are all virtuous intellectuals, varying from young to old. Endowed with great mountains and lofty peaks, Orchid Pavilion has flourishing branches and high bamboo bushes all around, together with a clear winding brook engirdled, which can thereby serve the guests by floating the wine glasses on top for their drinking. Seated by the bank of brook, people will still regale themselves right by poetizing their mixed feelings and emotions with wine and songs, never mind the absence of melody from string and wind instruments. 是日也，天朗气清，惠风和畅。 仰观宇宙之大，俯察品类之盛。所以游目骋怀，...

《论语》 with English Translations

小编导读：《论语》：中国春秋时期一部语录体散文集，主要记载孔子及其弟子的言行。它较为集中地反映了孔子的思想。由孔子弟子及再传弟子编纂而成。全书共20篇、492章，首创 “语录体” 。 《论语》 （四）曾子曰：“吾日三省乎吾身。为人谋，而不忠乎？与朋友交，而不信乎？传，不习乎？” （五）子曰：“道千乘之国，敬事而信，节用而爱人，使民以时。” （六）子曰：“弟子入则孝，出则悌，谨而信，泛爱众而亲仁。行有余力，则以学文。” （七）子夏曰：“贤贤易色；事父母能竭其力，事君能致其身；与朋友交；言而有信。虽曰未学，吾必谓之学矣。” THE ANALECTS 4. Master Tseng said, Every day I examine myself on these three points: in acting on behalf of others, have I always been loyal to their interests? In intercourse with my friends, have I always been true to my word? Have I failed to repeat the precepts that have been handed down to me? 5. The Master said, A country of a thousand war-chariots cannot be administered unless the ruler attends strictly to business, punctually observes his promises, is economical in expenditure, shows affection towards his subjects in general, and uses the lavour of the peasantry only at the proper times of year. 6. The Master said, A young man’s duty is to behave well to his parents at home and to his elders abroad, to be cautious in gi...
