唐 詩 Tang Shi – 300 Tang poems

遣悲懷之二
昔日戲言身後事， 今朝都到眼前來。
衣裳已施行看盡， 針線猶存未忍開。
尚想舊情憐婢僕， 也曾因夢送錢財。
誠知此恨人人有， 貧賤夫妻百事哀。

原文 206

We joked, long ago, about one of us dying,
But suddenly, before my eyes, you are gone.
Almost all your clothes have been given away;
Your needlework is sealed, I dare not look at it....
I continue your bounty to our men and our maids –
Sometimes, in a dream, I bring you gifts.
...This is a sorrow that all mankind must know –
But not as those know it who have been poor together.

Bynner 206
