北宋伟大文学家欧阳修最美诗词英译集锦

日月同辉

序言

欧阳修(1007--1072)，字永叔，号醉翁，晚号六一居士。吉州永丰(今属江西)人，天圣(1030年)进士。他是北宋著名政治家、文学家、史学家。其文学成就最高，是唐代古文运动之后北宋文坛的盟主。

他幼年家境贫寒，四岁丧父，他自幼天资过人，母以″荻画地教子″。母亲郑氏为让儿子习文练字，想出了一个巧妙的办法:用荻草代替毛笔教他在地上写字。欧阳修勤奋刻苦，练成了一手好字，成为远近闻名的神童，十岁左右所作文赋，老如成人。他

24岁中进士，步入仕途。历任知县、知州、馆阁校勘、翰林学士、枢密副使、参知政事(副宰相)等职。熙宁四年致仕，次年卒于颖州(今安徽阜阳)，享年66岁。死后谥″文忠”。他政绩显赫，著述极丰。散文、诗词均有成就。著有《新五代史》《集古录》《六一词》等。

欧阳修晚年，每天把一生中所写的文字，加以修改，用心极苦。他夫人叫他不要修改了，说:″何必这样折磨自己，难道还怕老师责骂？″欧阳修笑曰:″不怕先生骂，却怕后人笑。″

欧阳修在中国文学史上的主要艺朮成就:

欧阳修在中国文学史上有重要的地位。他大力倡导诗文革新运动，改革了唐末宋初的形式主义文风和诗风，取得了显著成绩。由于他在政治上的显著地位，有似于唐代的韩愈，他推荐选拔和指导了王安石、曾巩、苏洵、苏轼、苏辙等散文家，对他们的散文创作有很大的影响。他的平易文风，还一直延续到元明清各朝代。欧阳修对有真才实学的后生极尽赞美，竭力推荐，使一大批当时还默默无闻的青年才俊脱颖而出，堪称千古百乐。″唐宋八大家”中五人均出自他的门下，而且都以布衣之身被他相中，提携而名扬天下。

欧阳修在传统文化的重重束缚下挣扎着表现自我。他淡视名利，无欲则刚，其目的也是为维护社会稳定，但他不是″守旧″而是"图新″。他身居高位，仍坚守大节，保持人格尊严，对习惯势力和庸俗无聊的生存状态进行抵制。正是欧阳修堪为人师的道德文章，才有薪火相传的苏门四学士的黄庭坚、秦观、晁补之、张耒，才有了曾巩、曾布、昆仲，才有了中国十一世纪的改革家王安石，是欧阳修奠定了宋代文化盛世的基础。政治上他曾支持过范仲淹等的革新主张，文学上力主″明道″、"致用″，反对论卑气弱、艰涩险怪的时文和风靡诗坛的″西昆体″，他是北宋诗文革新运动的领袖。″唐宋八大家″之一。他一生著述丰厚，散文达500余篇，政论充分发挥儒家中的民本思想。为治国理政服务。如《与高司谏书》《朋党论》等。他状物写景及叙事的散文摇拽生姿，从容委婉，如《醉翁亭记》等。他的词基夲上沿袭晚唐五代余风，抒情委婉深致，写景清新明丽，亦有少数篇章风格豪放疏宕。

译者这次英译欧阳修最美诗词十余首，旨在深入解读这位中国文学史上最杰出的文学家的艺术特色，传播其诗词作品的艺术成就。本美篇釆用汉英对照、图文并茂，并配有背景音乐，以飨微友读者。由于时间仓促，制作美篇刚起步，难免有许多不足之处，恳请微友读者不吝赐教。

Tune: Everlasting Longing

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

The stream is full of duckweed,

The dyke is encircled by green willow

trees.

On western shore I bade farewell to my

parting friend.

When I came back , the hill moon had

already drooped.

Mist is heavy,

Wind is chilly.

Leaning on the gate painted with red,

Again I wait

For my friend 's neighing steed ;

I see gulls fly back and forth

Pair by pair,

In cold air.

Spring Travel to Fengle Pavilion

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

Red bloom trees, verdant green hills and

the setting sun.

The sight of our suburbs is trimmed with

endless green.

Travellers do not mind if the spring will

end soon.

They tread the fallen flowers roughly in

front of the pavilion.

蝶恋花

欧阳修

庭院深深深几许？杨柳堆烟，帘幕无重数。玉勒雕鞍游冶处，楼高不见章台路。

Flowers

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

The courtyard is very very deep,

But I not know how deep it is .

Just like smoke heap upon heap,

The willows are swaying in the breeze.

By layer upon layer of curtain and screen.

Leaving his fine saddle and jade bridle,

at the place where sons of noble and

wealthy families

Often seek pleasure and make merry.

I climb my tower to look into the distance

but fail to find his trace.

The raging rain and wild wind come

together in the third moon late;

The scenery of dusk is barred from the

gate,

But I have no means to persuade spring

scenery to stay.

With tearful eyes I ask fallen flowers,

But they fail to say.

I see scattered and messy red flowers

fly over the swing.

浪淘沙

欧阳修

把酒祝东风，且共从容。垂杨紫陌洛城东。总是旧时携手处，游遍芳丛。聚散苦匆匆，此恨无穷。今年花胜去年红。可惜明年花更红，知与谁同？

注释:浪淘沙:词牌名。把酒:端着酒杯。从容:留恋，不舍。紫陌:紫色的道路。据说洛阳当时用紫色的土铺路，故名。洛城:洛阳。

Tune: Ripples Sifting Sand

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

Raising a cup of wine in hand, I drink to

eastern breeze:

Please stay more time, don't come and

go in a hurry !

On the purple outskirts paths with whirl -

ing green willows east of Luoyang city,

We used to go sightseeing hand in hand

in old days,

Viewing all over the flower shrubs.

To meet and part in haste,

Would leave us an eternal regret in our

heart.

Flowers bloom redder this year than last.

They'll be more beautiful next year, maybe,

But who will enjoy them with me?

釆桑子(一)

Gathering Mulberry Leaves

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

Paddling a light boat with short oars,

the scene of West Lake is more enchant -

ing.

Dark green water is meandering and

unceasing.

Sweet grass overgrows

here and there along the long banks.

A flute song can be heard instinctly in

every place.

Without wind blowing,

the water surface is smooth like glass ;

I don't feel the boat moves.

I can only see wavelets rippling behind

When it goes.

The waterbirds startled by the boat skim

over the flat sandy banks.

临江仙

欧阳修

柳外轻雷池上雨，雨声滴碎荷声。小楼西角断虹明。阑干私依处，遥见月华生。

燕子飞来窥画栋，玉钩垂下帘旌。凉波不动簟纹平。水晶双枕畔，犹有堕钗横。

Tune: Immortal at the River

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

Beyond the willow trees

the light thunder is heard ;

And the raindrops drip from lotus leaves .

The fine rain is pitter -pattering on the

pond.

An imperfect rainbow separated by West

Tower can be seen.

We lean on rails alone.

To watch the rising moon.

Swallows, pair by pair, fly back to peep at

the painted eave;

I pull down the curtain from the jade hook,

The even and flat bamboo mat still spread

as if calm and quiet wave

Cold on bed.

But by the crystal pillows twin

There seems to be left her hairpin.

釆桑子(三)

群芳过后西湖好，①狼籍残红，②飞絮蒙蒙，垂柳栏杆尽日风。

笙歌散尽游人去，③始觉春空，垂下帘栊，④双燕归来细雨中。

Tune: Gathering Mulberry Leaves

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

All flowers having withered away, West

Lake is still gorgeous.

The fallen flowers scatter about in a mess.

Floating willow catkins,

Just like misty fine rain drops,

Fly all day in breeze beyond the railings.

Flute songs end and sightseers disperse

already.

I begin to feel the spring days pass

leasurely and lonely.

Lowering the curtains in vain,

I see a pair of swallows come back in the

fine rain.

青玉案

欧阳修

一年春事都来几？早过了，三之二。绿暗红嫣浑可事。绿阳庭院，暖风帘幕，有个人憔悴。买花载酒长安市，又争似，家山见桃李？不枉东风吹客泪。相思难表，梦魂无据，惟有归来是。

Tune: Green Jade Cup

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

How many cheerful things have

happened in this spring ?

Two-thirds of the spring has passed

away already.

The shade of green trees is thick,

And layer upon layer of red flowers are

in full blooming .

The courtyard is shaded by willows.

And curtain is ruffled by warm breeze.

Alone I 'm consumed with deep griefs.

Even if in Chang 'an City I can afford to

buy flowers and wine.

How can it be compared with peach and

plum in homeland of mine?

Don't complain that the eastern breeze

has blown down the strangers ' tears.

For it's hard to express their homesick -

ness.

And their dreams are also baseless.

To go home is the only way to attain

their wishes.

生查子

欧阳修

含羞整翠鬟，得意频相顾。雁柱十三弦，一一春莺语。

娇云容易飞，梦断知何处？深院锁黄昏，阵阵芭蕉雨。

注释:翠鬟:妇女环形发譬称鬟。翠鬟:泛指美发。雁柱十三弦:筝有十三弦，琴柱斜排如雁斜飞，称雁柱。这里均代指古筝。

[译文]似娇还羞抿了抿秀发乌鬟，笑靥盈盈秋波流转频频顾盼。玉手纤指弹琴，筝声婉转欢快，琴弦飞荡回旋，似春莺传情，低语交欢。

曲尽人去，宛如飞云飘逸，只留下娇柔的身影。春梦已断，不知何处寻觅。庭院深深，锁住的是寂寞和黄昏，还有那阵阵凄雨敲打的芭蕉声。

Tune: Mountain Hawthorn

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

She arranges her beautiful coils of hair

bashfully.

When a tune is well played, she gives me

loving glances frequently.

Her slanted thirteen strings of heptachord

are just like thirteen rows of wild geese.

As orioles sing vernal songs one after

another to express their amorous feelings

in low voice.

The fair cloud seems to fly away easily ,

Awake from my sweet dream, Where can I

find her occasionally?

Locked up with the twilight and solitude

in my deep courtyard,

Shower upon shower the rain patterns

against the banana leaves, I can hear

the rain sound.

诉衷情

欧阳修

清晨帘幕卷轻霜，呵手试梅妆。都缘自有离恨，故画作远山长。思往事，惜流光，易成伤。未歌先敛，欲笑还颦，最断人肠。

注释:诉衷情:原为唐教坊曲名，后用为词牌名。双调44字，上下两片各三平韵。轻霜:

流逝的年华。敛:收敛表情。颦:皱眉，忧愁的样子。断人肠:悲痛之极，谓之断肠。

Tune: Telling of Heart-felt Emotion

Ouyang Xiu

Translated By Fan Huaiyu

At dawn she rolls up frosted

screen,

She breathes to warm her hands trying

to adorn herself with plum blossoms in

new fashion.

As she cherishes the sorrow of parting

still,

she pencils her brows as long as a

distant hill.

As she recollects the past,

She deplores time flies so fast .

And she was too sentimental at her

heart.

Before she wants to sing , she would set

her face for a while ;

She knits her brows when she would

smile.

Oh, all this causes her heart broken.

蝶恋花

欧阳修

几日行云何处去？忘了归来，不道春将暮①。百草千花寒食路②，香车系在谁家树？③泪眼倚楼频独语，双燕来时，陌上相逢否？④撩乱春愁如柳絮，依依梦里无寻处。

注释:①不道:不觉。②百草千花:词意双关，即指寒食节的实景，也暗指花街柳巷的妓女。寒食:寒食节在清明节的前一天。③香车:指情郎的马车。④陌上:小路。

Tune: Butterflies-Falling -in-Love -With-

Flowers

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

Where have you gone for many a day just

like floating cloud?

My dear sweetheart, Do you forget to

return homeward road?

Don't you know spring has already grown

old?

On Cold Food Day sightseers in pairs

stroll along the treading -green -grass

road .

Under whose tree is your scented cab

fastened and at whose household?

With tearful eyes I murmur to myself

alone on my balcony.

Watching the returning swallows in pairs

I ask them whether they have met you on

the pathway.

Spring grief is running wild just like willow

catkins.

Nowhere can I find you, my sweetheart,

even in my sweet dreams .

采桑子(二)

欧阳修

画船载酒西湖好，急管繁弦，玉盏催传，稳泛平波任醉眠。

行云却在行舟下，空水澄鲜，俯仰留连，

疑是湖中别有天。

注释:急管繁弦:指变化丰富而节拍紧凑的音乐。玉盏:玉制的酒杯。空水:天空与水面。澄鲜:清澈明亮。俯仰:仰观俯察，观赏。

Tune : Song of Picking Mulberries (2)

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

On the West Lake it's fine to carry wine

in painted boat,

From tubes and strings comes orchestral

music fast ;

Jade cup urges to pass on from hand to

hand repeatedly.

On calming waves we lie drunk freely and

safely.

Beneath our moving boat fleeting clouds

seem to float near.

Both water and the sky seem to be very

clear.

Looking up and below; We tend to linger

on there.

We are doubtful if there is another sky in

the lake near.

画眉鸟①

欧阳修

百转千声随意移②，山花红紫树高低。

始知锁向金笼听，不及林间自在啼。

O Thrush

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

O thrush, hundreds upon thousands of

sweet twitters you utters as you please .

Red or purple hill flowers, tall or low trees

you can freely choose.

Now I get to know that you shouldn 't be

locked in a gold bird -cage for chirps.

You 'd better roost in the forest to sing at

ease.

注释:①画眉鸟:一种叫得很好听的鸟。

②啭:指画眉鸟婉转的叫声。随意移:自由自在地在树林里飞来飞去。

生查子. 元夕

欧阳修(1007-1072)

去年元夜时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。

今年元夜时，月与灯依旧。不见去年人，

泪满春衫袖。

注释:元夜:元宵之夜。农历正月十五为元宵节。北宋时从正月十四到十六三天，开宵禁，游灯街花市，通宵歌舞，盛况空前，也是年轻人密约幽会，谈情说爱的好机会。花市:民俗每年春时举行的卖花、赏花的集市。灯如昼:灯火像白天一样。月上:一作″月到″。见:看见。泪湿:一作″泪满″。春衫:年少时穿的衣服，也指代年轻时的自己。

Tune: Mountain Hawthorn

--The Lantern Festival Night

Ouyang Xiu

Translated By Fan Huaiyu

On the last year 's Lantern Festival night,

The flower fair was ablaze of light.

The bright moon climbed over the tip of

willow trees.

An appointment to meet my sweetheart

was made after twilight.

On this year 's Lantern Festival night,

The moon and lanterns are the same as

before.

But I couldn't meet my sweetheart any

more.

My lovesick tears wet my sleeves for my

broken heart.

望江南

欧阳修

江南柳，花柳两相柔。花片落时粘酒盏，

柳条低处拂人头，各自是风流。

江南月，如镜复如钩。似镜不侵红粉面，似钩不挂画帘头，长是照离愁。

注释:花柳两相柔:柳树与花儿同样的温柔美丽。花片落时:花瓣缓缓飘落时。粘酒盏:粘在酒杯上。拂人头:在人们的头顶上扫来扫去。各自是风流:各自是那般美好动人。如镜复如钩:像一面镜子，而又像似一把钩子。似镜不侵红粉面:说它像镜子吧，没有女子对着它涂抹胭脂。似钩不挂画帘头:说它像钩子吧，却挂不了任何画帘。长是照离愁:它只能总是映照着人们分离的痛苦。

Tune: Dreaming of the South of the

Yangtze River

Ouyang Xiu

Translated by Fan Huaiyu

The green willow trees in the South of

the Yangtze River;

Both willows and flowers are enchanting

and slender.

The fallen petals often stick to your cup

of wine;

The willow branches hanging low stroke

lightly your head.

Each of them has its own respective

romantic grade.

The moon in the South of the Yangtze

River,

Now like a hook, now like a mirror.

A mirror in which no beauty faces it

dressing .

A hook on which hangs no curtain

painting .

It always shines on people 's sorrows

of parting.
