菩薩蠻 辛棄疾

菩薩蠻  書江西造口壁      辛棄疾 (1140-1207)

鬱孤台下清江水， 中間多少行人淚？
西北望長安，可憐無數山。
青山遮不住，畢竟東流去！
江晚正愁余，山深聞鷓鴣。

 

Pu Sa Man   Written on a wall at Zaokou in the province of Jiangxi     Xin Qiji (1140-1207)

The raving waters of Ganjiang beneath the Yugu Tower
Roll with loads of wayfarers’ tears,
Looking northwest to Chang’an,
I behold countless mountain ranges;
Ineluctably all these mountains can’t stop the eastbound draining of the river;
Fretted by heavy anguish beside the river in the hazy vesper,
Mournful cries of the francolins from deep in the vales reach my ears.
