唐 詩 Tang Shi – 300 Tang poems

送魏萬之京
朝聞遊子唱驪歌， 昨夜微霜初度河。
鴻雁不堪愁裡聽， 雲山況是客中過。
關城樹色催寒近， 御苑砧聲向晚多。
莫見長安行樂處， 空令歲月易蹉跎。

原文 173

The travellers' parting-song sounds in the dawn.
Last night a first frost came over the river;
And the crying of the wildgeese grieves my sad heart
Bounded by a gloom of cloudy mountains....
Here in the Gate City, day will flush cold
And washing-flails quicken by the gardens at twilight –
How long shall the capital content you,
Where the months and the years so vainly go by?

Bynner 173
