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.
