雙語詩歌翻譯|李商隱-《夢澤》

《夢澤》是唐代詩人李商隱所寫的一首詠史詩。此詩乃詩人于大中二年（848）北歸時(shí)目睹荒涼的夢澤時(shí)有感所寫。詩歌用辛辣的語調(diào)諷刺了楚靈王的昏庸無道，并對渴求寵幸的宮女的愚昧麻木表達(dá)了深深的譴責(zé)和惋惜。

《夢澤》 李商隱

夢澤悲風(fēng)動(dòng)白茅，楚王葬盡滿城嬌。
未知歌舞能多少，虛減宮廚為細(xì)腰。

The grass trembles before a mournful wind o'er the lakeshore;
Here a king of Chu buried all the pretty girls of his capital.
Although none of them knew how long she could dance for the king,
For thinning their waists, their food was stinted---what was the good after all?
