《七哀詩·其二》 王粲

荊蠻非我鄉(xiāng)，何為久滯淫？
方舟溯大江，日暮愁我心。
山岡有余映，巖阿增重陰。
狐貍馳赴穴，飛鳥翔故林。
流波激清響，猴猿臨岸吟。
迅風(fēng)拂裳袂，白露沾衣襟。
獨夜不能寐，攝衣起撫琴。
絲桐感人情，為我發(fā)悲音。
羈旅無終極，憂思壯難任。

Lamentations

II

The savage Jingzhou is not my hometown;
Why then should I live here and settle down?
When up the Yangtze River I sail the boat,
The setting sun adds on a grievous note.
While the sun throws its last rays on the mount,
The crags reveal more shades than one my count.
The fox returns into its hidden hole
While o'er its native woods the bird patrol.
The rushing torrents roar aloud and clear
While monkeys wail on banksides far and near.
Into my sleeves swift winds fly straight and true
While evening moistens my thin dress with dew.
As I stay awake all by myself at night,
I'm dressed and play the lute in bright moonlight.
The lute appears to understand my mind,
Readily uttering notes of saddest kind.
As I am doomed to wander here and there,
The sad home thoughts are more than I can bear.
