感旧歌者
[元]戴表元
牡丹红紫艳春天,
檀板[1]朱丝锦色笺。
头白江南一尊酒,
无人知是李龟年[2]。
注释:
[1]檀板:用精致的檀木制成的乐器。
[2]李龟年:唐玄宗时的乐工,具有极高的音乐天赋,人称“乐圣”。
A Songster on West Lake[1]
Dai Biaoyuan
Peonies pink or violet embellish spring;
Beside the music score lie clappers with red string.
A white-haired man with cup of wine on southern shore,
Nobody knows he was the songster all adore.
注释:
[1]After the downfall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the poet regretted that the famous songster became unknown even on West Lake.
