沁園春《長沙》 一九二五年     

Changsha

 

獨(dú)立寒秋， 湘江北去橘子洲頭。

Alone I stand in the autumn cold， 

On the tip of Orange Island,

The Xiang flowing northward;
看萬山紅遍，  層林盡染；

I see a thousand hills crimsoned through
    By their serried woods deep-dyed,
漫江碧透，百舸爭流。

 And a hundred barges vying   Over crystal blue waters.
鷹擊長空，魚翔淺底， 萬物霜天競自由。

     Eagles cleave the air,

Fish glide under the shallow water;
    Under freezing skies a million creatures contend in freedom.
悵寥廓， 問蒼茫大地，誰主沉浮？ 

Brooding over this immensity,
 I ask, on this bondless land
Who rules over man's destiny?

 

 

攜來百侶曾游。 

I was here with a throng of companions,
憶往昔崢嶸歲月稠。 

Vivid yet those crowded months and years.
恰同學(xué)少年， 風(fēng)華正茂；

Young we were, schoolmates, At life's full flowering;
書生意氣，揮斥方遒。 

Filled with student enthusiasm 

Boldly we cast all restraints aside.
指點(diǎn)江山， 激揚(yáng)文字，糞土當(dāng)年萬戶侯。

Pointing to our mountains and rivers,

 Setting people afire with our words, 

We counted the mighty no more than muck.
曾記否，到中流擊水，浪遏飛舟？

 Remember still How,

venturing midstream, we struck the waters 

And the waves stayed the speeding boats?
