雙語(yǔ)詩(shī)歌翻譯|蘇軾-《初到黃州》

《初到黃州》是北宋文學(xué)家蘇軾創(chuàng)作的一首七言律詩(shī)。這首詩(shī)描寫作者初到黃州的所見，深刻地刻畫了蘇軾初到黃州時(shí)的復(fù)雜矛盾的心緒。有自嘲自傷，有對(duì)權(quán)勢(shì)者的嘲笑，卻又以超曠的胸襟對(duì)待自己的遭遇，在自然中發(fā)現(xiàn)美，在逆境中尋求生活的樂(lè)趣，表現(xiàn)了詩(shī)人一貫的豁達(dá)、樂(lè)觀。

蘇軾·《初到黃州》

自笑平生為口忙，老來(lái)事業(yè)轉(zhuǎn)荒唐。
長(zhǎng)江繞郭知魚美，好竹連山覺(jué)筍香。
逐客不妨員外置，詩(shī)人例作水曹郎。
只慚無(wú)補(bǔ)絲毫事，尚費(fèi)官家壓酒囊。

Upon My Arrival in Huangzhou
Su Shi
I laugh at my life for being kept busy by my mouth;
My career, in my senior years, has gone terribly awry.
Living in the loop of the Yangtze, I have a taste for fish;
Bamboos hill after hill, I'm keen on their delicious shoots.
An exile? Why not put him in an out-of-payroll position;
Poets, in such cases, usually join the ranks of water boys1,
Embarrassing, though, for no duties required whatsoever,
Not to say, in the form of wine bags2 the official handouts.
