Wang Wei: Miscellany ~ 《杂诗》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:《杂诗·君自故乡来》也称《杂诗(其二)》,是盛唐时期大诗人王维所作的一首五言诗,是组诗《杂诗三首》的第二首。诗歌前两句以记言的方式询问从家乡来的友人,后两句则仅问寒梅是否开花一事,出人意外。抒发了诗人对故乡亲人和与风物景色的思念。此诗化复杂为单纯,变质实为空灵。全诗平淡质朴,却诗味浓郁。 《杂诗》 王维 君自故乡来,应知故乡事。 来日绮窗前,寒梅著花末? Miscellany You came from our hometown, Should know things over there. By the window the day you left, In bloom were the winter plums?

Wang Wei: Song of Youth --to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing ~ 《少年行·其 四》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:王维的《少年行四首》,以浪漫的笔调讴歌了豪荡使气、舍身报国、崇尚事功和功成不居的任侠精神,表现出强烈的英雄主义色彩。他笔下的少年游侠形象,和盛唐其他诗人创造的形象一样,实际上是时代理想的人格化写照。这四首绝句独自成篇,各有侧重,但又蝉联而下,互相补充和照应。用笔或实或虚,或显或隐,舒卷自如,不拘一格,成功地谱写了一支朝气蓬勃、富有青春旋律的进行曲。 《少年行·其四》 王维 汉家君臣欢宴终,高议云台论战功。 天子临轩赐侯印,将军佩出明光宫。 Song of Youth –to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing Wang Wei Following a feast given by the Emperor in the Han court, Military exploits are mentioned in the Cloud-Touching Tower. His Majesty then appears in the hall to award a marquis sea, To a general, who wearing it proudly walks out.

Wang Wei: Song of Youth--to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing ~ 《少年行·其 二》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:《少年行·其二》写少年们怀着为国牺牲的豪情壮志,从军出征渔阳。他们蔑视困难,蔑视艰苦,也蔑视死亡,充满了豪侠气概和英雄主义精神。 《少年行·其二》 王维 出身仕汉羽林郎,初随骠骑战渔阳。 孰知不向边庭苦,纵死犹闻侠骨香。 Song of Youth–to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing Wang Wei As a Han officer I once served with the Imperial Guards; My first battle, at Yuyang, was under General Huo’s command. Very well I know the hardships of those at the frontier, But the bones of the valiant dead will emit fragrance ever after.

Wang Wei: Song of Youth--to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing ~ 《少年行·其 三》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:《少年行·其三》写少年的勇武杀敌。诗人将主人公置于孤危险恶的战争情势之中。“虏骑千重”指敌人大军压境,形成包围之势;“众敌酋倾巢出动,来势汹汹,企图以优势兵力取胜。而少年以“一身”对“千重”之敌,竟能左右驰突于敌阵之中,如入无人之境,且能擒贼先擒王,将凶蛮剽悍的敌酋“纷纷射杀”,其过人的胆略和武艺已分明可见。这里把少年写成孤胆英雄,意在突出他的勇冠三军、战功卓著。 《少年行·其三》 王维 一身能擘两雕弧,虏骑千重只似无。 偏坐金鞍调白羽,纷纷射杀五单于。 Song of Youth–to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing Wang Wei With either arm he is able to draw his bow; Large numbers of mounted enemies are naught to him. He takes aim while sitting sideways on a flying saddle, And finishes off five Hun chiefs at a stretch without fail.

Wang Wei: Song of Youth --to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing ~ 《少年行·其 一》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:《少年行·其一》写侠少的欢聚痛饮。诗开头便以“美酒”领起,因为豪饮酣醉自来被认为是英雄本色。此诗意近李诗,不仅极言酒之珍美,而且还借前人的用语写出慷慨好客、纵情欢乐的盛况。 《少年行·其一》 王维 新丰美酒斗十千,咸阳游侠多少年。 相逢意气为君饮,系马高楼垂柳边。 Song of Youth –to the yuef tune Shao Nian Xing Wang Wei A vessel of Xingfeng wine is worth ten thousand cash; In Xiangyang most of the chivalrous and gallant are young men. Sharing like views and tastes they drink heartily to each other, While their horses are tethered to willows by tall buildings.

Wang Wei: The White-Stone Shoal ~ 《白石滩》 王维 with English Translations

小编导读:《白石滩》是唐代诗人王维《辋川集》中的一首五言绝句,是《全唐诗》的第128卷第37首诗。[1] 此诗前两句写诗人在白石滩白天所见的清秀景色,后两句写晚上所见的景物和人物活动。诗人淡淡几笔,勾勒出一幅清浅、明朗、柔和、优美的图画,足可见月之明,水之清,蒲之绿,石之白。画面清丽优雅,盎然生机、喜悦之情溢于言外。诗写清溪白石,语言也象清溪白石,洁净洗练,朴素圆实,流露出诗人特有的诗风。 《白石滩》 王维 清浅白石滩,绿蒲向堪把。 家住水东西,浣纱明月下。 The White-Stone Shoal Wang Wei Clear and shallow is the water of the White-Stone Shoal; The green rushes are easily held in one hand. Damsels living on either side of the stream Wash their silk yarn in the bright moon’s light.

Wang Wei: Farewell to an Envoy on His Mission to Anxi ~ 《送元二使安 西》 王维 with English Translations

《送元二使安西》是唐代诗人王维送朋友去西北边疆时作的诗。此诗前两句写送别的时间、地点、环境气氛。三四句是一个整体,主人的这句似乎脱口而出的劝酒辞就是此刻强烈,深挚的惜别之情的集中表现。这首诗所描写的是一种最有普遍性的离别。它没有特殊的背景,而自有深挚的惜别之情,这就使它适合于绝大多数离筵别席演唱,后来编入乐府,成为最流行,传唱最久的歌曲。 《送元二使安西》 王维 渭城朝雨浥轻尘,客舍清清柳色新。 劝君更尽一杯酒,西出阳关无故人。 Farewell to an Envoy on His Mission to Anxi By Wang Wei What’s got Weicheng’s path dust wet is the morning rain, The willows near the Hotel become green again. I urge you to empty another cup of wine, West of the Yangguan Pass you’ll see no more of mine.
