雙語詩歌翻譯|陶淵明-《九日閑居》

《九日閑居》是晉代詩人陶淵明創(chuàng)作的作品。這首詩根據(jù)其小序中所說的情形來看，與此詩中所敘之事略同，考王宏為江州刺史始于公元418年（義熙十四年），時淵明已過五十五歲，可見此詩是他的晚年所作。

陶淵明 《九日閑居》

余閑居，愛重九之名。秋菊盈園，而持醪靡由?？辗湃A，寄懷於言。

世短意常多，斯人樂久生。
日月依辰至，舉俗愛其名。
露凄暄風(fēng)息，氣激天象明。
往燕無遺影，來雁有余聲。
酒能祛百慮，菊解制頹齡。
如何蓬廬士，空視時運傾！
塵爵恥虛壘，寒華徒自榮。
斂襟獨閑謠，緬焉起深情。
棲遲固多娛，淹留豈無成？

A Leisured Life on the Double Ninth
(With a Preface)

Now that I live a leisured life, I love the name of the Double Ninth. When autumn chrysanthemums flourish in my garden, I have no wine to drink. In face of the flowers, I write this verse to bare my thoughts.

Man's life is short and full of cares and strife,
Yet man still longs to live a long, long life.
The Double Ninth arrives in its due time,
A festive name that is praised as sublime.
Amid the heavy dews the days are clean,
The air is fresh, the sky remains serene.
The south-bound swallows have already gone by
While songs of wild geese echo in the sky.
The wine relieves me of many a care;
Chrysanthemums give me years to spare.
How can I, a wretched scholar, stand alone
And let the time blow forward by on its won!
When dusty goblets lie before an empty jars,
Chrysanthemums bloom in vain as they are.
As I calm down and sing an idle song
My feelings are indeed profound and strong.
Such mighty joy the leisured days provide
That I've achieved a lot where reside.
