雙語詩歌翻譯|陸游-《金錯(cuò)刀行》

《金錯(cuò)刀行》是南宋著名的愛國詩人陸游的詩作。全詩詠物言志，借贊美金錯(cuò)刀寓抗金報(bào)國之志。詩在用韻上是四句一轉(zhuǎn)，與詩人情感表達(dá)的流瀉起伏變化相適應(yīng)，讀起來抑揚(yáng)頓挫。

《金錯(cuò)刀行》 陸游

黃金錯(cuò)刀白玉裝，
夜穿窗扉出光芒。
丈夫五十功未立，
提刀獨(dú)立顧八荒。
京華結(jié)交盡奇士，
意氣相期共生死。
千年史冊(cè)恥無名，
一片丹心報(bào)天子。
爾來從軍天漢濱，
南山曉雪玉嶙峋。
嗚呼！楚雖三戶能亡秦，
豈有堂堂中國空無人！

Song of The Gold-Inlaid Sward
Lu You

Mine is a sword with gold inlaid,
With a hilt of white jade,
That through the window sheds its light
Into the dark, dark night.
I, a man with fifty years gone,
No feats of arms accomplished,
Sword in hand I stand alone
And look around me far ahead.
At the capital, my friends—
—First-water men everyone—
Pledged to chivalry and sworn
In life and death never to swerve,
Deem it a shame to leave no name
In the chronicles of history.
And single-hearted in loyalty,
We're set our Sovereign to serve.
I've been with the Army of late
From the banks of River Han,
Where th' morning snow of Mt. Zhongnan
Transforms the ranges into jade.
Alas! "If only three households
Were all that's left of the Chu State,
Still it would be Chu that'll vanquish
The now powerful State of Qin!"
So now, how could it be said,
That our noble Central Nation
Is left without courageous men?
