Wen Tingyun: Early Departure at Shang Mountain ~《商山早行》 温庭筠 with English Translations

小编导读:《商山早行》选自《温飞卿诗集笺注》。是唐代文学家温庭筠的诗作。此诗描写了旅途中寒冷凄清的早行景色,抒发了游子在外的孤寂之情和浓浓的思乡之意,字里行间流露出人在旅途的失意和无奈。 《商山早行》 温庭筠 晨起动征铎,客行悲故乡。 鸡声茅店月,人迹板桥霜。 槲叶落山路,枳花明驿墙。 因思杜陵梦,凫雁满回塘。 Early Departure at Shang Mountain Wen Tingyun Getting up early disturbs the journeying bells, The traveler grieves for leaving home. Cocks crow, small inn and the moon. Footprints, boards of bridge and the frost. Leaves of Mongolian oak fall on the mountain paths, Citron flowers brighten the walls of the post, Thus reminded of the dream in Duling Tomb, Where bobbing ducks filling the curving pool.

Wen Tingyun: Damozhi Song ~ 《达摩支曲》 温庭筠 with English Translations

小编导读:《达摩支曲》是唐代诗人温庭筠创作的一首七言古诗。诗人在这首诗中,颂扬了蔡文姬、苏武二人的爱国热情,斤责了“无愁天子”高纬的误国行径,对有雄心报国的北齐老臣终抱亡国之恨表示叹惋。 《达摩支曲》 温庭筠 捣麝成尘香不灭,拗莲作寸丝难绝。 红泪文姬洛水春,白头苏武天山雪。 君不见无愁高纬花漫漫,漳浦宴馀清露寒。 一旦臣僚共囚虏,欲吹羌管先汍澜。 旧臣头鬓霜华早,可惜雄心醉中老。 万古春归梦不归,邺城风雨连天草。 Damozhi Song Wen Tingyun Pestling the musk into powder does not kill the fragrance, Snapping lotus root by the inch hardly severs the attaching fibres. The red tears of Wenji and the Luoshui River in spring, The white hair of Su Wu and the fluttering Tianshan Mountain snow. Didn’t you see Gao Wei in his lascivious foppery, worry-free? The Zhang River banquet over, in came the chilling crystalline dews. Once the ministers and generals taken prisoners or slaves, The Qiang flute, ever since, was preceded by tearful spates. The sideburns of officials frosted before their time, Pity, their high ambitions aging in inebriating wine. From time immemorial, spring always returns but not dreams. As the Yecheng City is o’ergrown in storms with soaring weeds.

Pusaman: Wen Tingyun ~ 《菩萨蛮·小山重叠金明灭》 温庭筠 with English Translations

小编导读:《菩萨蛮·小山重叠金明灭》是唐代文学家温庭筠的代表词作。此词写女子起床梳洗时的娇慵姿态,以及妆成后的情态,暗示了人物孤独寂寞的心境。全词把妇女的容貌写得很美丽,服饰写得很华贵,体态也写得十分娇柔,仿佛描绘了一幅唐代仕女图。 《菩萨蛮·小山重叠金明灭》 温庭筠 小山重叠金明灭, 鬓云欲度香腮雪。 懒起画娥眉, 弄妆梳洗迟。 照花前后镜, 花面交相映。 新帖绣罗襦, 双双金鹧鸪。 Pusaman Wen Tingyun Sunlight shimmers on a picture, Carved in perspective on bed-screen. The hair on her temples appear— As clouds which, against her cheeks, lean. Slowly she rises from her bed; Paints her brows like a crescent moon. She takes her own time, unhurried; Completes her toilet none too soon. Her flowered head between two mirrors— Interlay with face in beauty made. On a jacket, tastefully cut— Are two partridges in brocade.

Wen Tingyun: Dreaming of the South ~ 《望江南》 温庭筠 with English Translations

小编导读:《望江南·梳洗罢》是唐代文学家温庭筠的词作。这是一首写闺怨的小令。此词以江水、远帆、斜阳为背景,截取倚楼顒望这一场景,以空灵疏荡之笔塑造了一个望夫盼归、凝愁含恨的思妇形象。全词表现了女主人公从希望到失望以致最后的“肠断”的感情,情真意切,语言精练含蓄而余意不尽,没有矫饰之态和违心之语,风格清丽自然,是温词中别具一格的精品。 《望江南》 温庭筠 梳洗罢, 独倚望江楼。 过尽千帆皆不是, 斜晖脉脉水悠悠。 肠断白蘋洲。 Dreaming of the South Wen Tingyun Washed and combed, she watches the river from above. Many sails pass; she sees no sign of her love. The slanting sun-rays cast a lingering glow; The broad river in its continuous flow; The islet with its plots of white flowers in bloom; Each and all contribute to her utter gloom.

Wen Tingyun: To the Tune "The Waterclock" ~ 《更漏子·玉炉香》 温庭筠 with English Translations

小编导读:《更漏子·玉炉香》是唐代文学家温庭筠的词作。此词抒写思妇的离愁。上阕写室内物象,虽是温暖祥和的场景,但孤独的思妇辗转难眠而容颜不整,鬓发散乱,忍受着枕衾间的寒冷与痛苦;下阕通过写思妇在室内听到室外的雨声来描摹人物的心情。全词从室内到室外,从视觉到听觉,从实到虚,构成一种浓郁的愁境。上阕辞采密丽,下阕疏淡流畅,一密一疏,一浓一淡,情感变化发展自然。 《更漏子·玉炉香》 温庭筠 玉炉香, 红蜡泪, 偏照画堂秋思。 眉翠薄, 鬓云残, 夜长衾枕寒。 梧桐树, 三更雨, 不道离情正苦。 一叶叶, 一声声, 空阶滴到明。 To the Tune “The Waterclock” Wen Tingyun Jade incense-burner’s fragrance, Red candle’s tears, Unevenly light the decorated chamber’s sadness. Eyebrows’ black thin, Tresses’ clouds fallen: Night long, coverlet and pillow cold. Wutong trees, Third watch rain, Care not for separation’s sorrow’s utter bitterness. Single leaf by leaf, Single sound by sound, On the empty steps dripping until dawn.

Wen Tingyun: The Jade Zither's Complaint ~ 《瑶瑟怨》 温庭筠 with English Translations

《瑶瑟怨》是唐代诗人温庭筠创作的一首七绝,是唐诗中脍炙人口的名篇之一。此诗描绘的是抒情主人公寂寞难眠而鼓瑟听瑟的各种感受,以表达别离之怨。 《瑶瑟怨》 温庭筠 冰簟银床梦不成,碧天如水夜云轻。 雁声远过潇湘去,十二楼中月自明。 The Jade Zither’s Complaint Wen Tingyun I fail to have a dream on my silver bed and cool mat; Clouds are ethereal in the watery blue sky at night. I hear wild geese flying to the distant Xiaoxiang; My celestial dwelling is flooded with helpless moonlight.
