秦观:天外一钩残月,带三星(原创英译)

自古才子多风流,流连烟花酒巷是常有的事。这首词是秦观离开蔡州时为心爱的营妓陶心儿所作,词中甚至还暗藏了陶心儿的名字。“天外一钩残月,带三星”,一个心字。

钱钟书《谈艺录》赞曰:词章家隽句,每本禅人话头。

南歌子

北宋·秦观

玉漏迢迢尽,银潢淡淡横。

梦回宿酒未全醒,已被邻鸡催起,怕天明。

臂上妆犹在,襟间泪尚盈。

水边灯火渐人行,天外一钩残月,带三星。

A Southern Song

The jade hourglass gradually drips out,

Across the Milky Way dim stars throw out.

I wake up feeling dizzy from tipsy of last nights wine,

The cock next door crows dawn, an annoying get-up cry.

Traces of her rouge stain in my arms,

On the lapels soaking her sad tears.

By the river flicking lights glimmer amid the growing steps.

In the sky a hook of waning moon hangs next to three stars.
