短歌行

曹 操

对酒当歌，人生几何？

譬如朝露，去日苦多。

慨当以慷，忧思难忘。

何以解忧？唯有杜康。

青青子衿，悠悠我心。

但为君故，沈吟至今。

呦呦鹿鸣，食野之苹。

我有嘉宾，鼓瑟吹笙。

明明如月，何时可掇?

忧从中来，不可断绝。

越陌度阡，枉用相存。

契阔谈讌，心念旧恩。

月明星稀，乌鹊南飞。

绕树三匝，何枝可依？

山不厌高，海不厌深。

周公吐哺，天下归心。

A Short Song Ballad

By CAO Cao

Tr. ZHAO Yanchun

Before wine, sing a song;

How long is life, how long?

It seems like morning dew

With bygones gone with woe.

O sing loud and sing free,

And yet my cause frets me.

What can kill sorrow mine?

Nothing but Dukang Wine.

Blue, blue the scholar gown

Seek, seek I up and down.

In your esteem I bow

And have chanted till now.

Each to each the deerbleat;

Afield wormwood they eat.

I have good guests today;

The lute and flute we play.

Fair, fair the moon does shine;

Could I have it? I pine!

My heart’s laden with care,

Which seems to stay for e’er.

Through the field lies the lane;

It’s for you, not in vain

We talk throughout repast;

Rememb’ringyour grace past.

Themoon’s bright and stars few;

Flysouth magpie and crow.

Thricethey go round the birch,

Buton which bough to perch?

Letmounts be high and steep

Andthe seas broad and deep.

O oursage Prince of Chough,

Toyour side all would go.
