元明清诗歌汉译英赏析53：The Yueyang Tower岳阳楼-杨基(中英双语)

(53) The Yueyang Tower

岳阳楼

Yang Ji (1326-378)

杨基

I drink spring at the height,

春色醉巴陵，

Rails mirrored in the lake.

阑干落洞庭。

Three States with water white;

水吞三楚白，

Nine peaks blue without break.

山接九疑青。

Fishes dance with delight;

空阔鱼龙舞，

The queen's soul comes awake.

娉婷帝子灵。

Who plays on flute at night?

何人夜吹笛，

Wind and rain weep for her sake.

风急雨冥冥。
