满庭芳
夏日溧水[1]无想山作

周邦彦

风老莺雏,
雨肥梅子,
午阴嘉树清圆。
地卑[2]山近,
衣润费炉烟。
人静乌鸢[3]自乐,
小桥外、
新绿溅溅[4]。
凭阑久,
黄芦苦竹,
疑泛九江船[5]。
年年。
如社燕[6],
飘流瀚海[7],
来寄修椽[8]。
且莫思身外,
长近尊[9]前。
憔悴江南倦客,
不堪听、
急管繁弦[10]。
歌筵畔,
先安簟枕,
容我醉时眠。

注释:
[1]溧水:今江苏省县名。
[2]地卑:地势低洼。

Courtyard Full of Fragrance
· Write on a Summer Day in Wu Xiang Hill

Zhou Bangyan

In balmy breeze
Fledged orioles in flight,
In gentle rain
The mumes are filling out.
At moon the rounded shadows of the stately trees
Are pools of cool delight.
Low is the plain
With hills about.
The clothes damp need incense smoke to make them dry.
It’s so reposeful that e’er crows won’t fly.
Beyond the little bridge green water sings its song.
Leaning on rails for long,
I seem to see that exiled poet who
Was fenced in by a tangle of weeds and bamboo.
From year to year
I’m like a swallow swift that leaves
For northern sea and wanders there and here,
But glad to come back under the same old eaves.
Well, why waste thoughts on downs and ups?
Just drink the ever-brimming cups!
For weary southerner with thoughts homebound,
E’en merry flutes and strings would hollow sound.
Beside the banquet table spread
Put mat and pillow on a bed
Where, drunken, I may rest my head!

注释:
The poet describes a reposeful summer day but he is as melancholic as the exiled poet Bai Juyi (772—846).
