陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
Eight Miscellaneous Poems
杂诗八首
Human life is rootless like a gale,
Floating like the dust along a trail.
It drifts and sails across the span of time,
Having long ago consumed its prime.
From birth we are made of the selfsame mud,
No matter whether we're of the selfsame blood
其一
人生无根蒂,飘如陌上尘。
分散逐风转,此已非常身。
落地为兄弟,何必骨肉亲!
We should enjoy the pleasures while we may;
Whenever there is wine, we’ll drink and play.
Our youth, once gone, will not come back again;
For the selfsame dawn we wait in vain.
Grasp the time and work hard as you can
Because the time and tide await no man.
1
陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
得欢当作乐,斗酒聚比邻。
盛年不重来,一日难再晨。
及时当勉励,岁月不待人。
Behind the west hill sinks the broad daylight;
Above the eastern peak the moon shines bright.
The moon sheds light o’er ten thousand li,
Visible its glow o,er land and sea.
When midnight wind blows into the room,
The pillow-mat becomes cold in the gloom.
其二
白日沦西阿,素月出东岭。
遥遥万里辉,荡荡空中景。
风来入房户,夜中枕席冷。
When winds turn cold, I know that seasons flow;
On sleepless nights I feel that time goes slow.
I’d like to talk, but with no one by my side,
I drink alone with my own shadow,tongue-tied.
While time flies fast and leaves me here behind,
I can’t do what is in my lofty mind.
At the thought of this, I’m filled with sorrow.
Sad and ill at ease until tomorrow.

陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
气变悟时易,不眠知夕永。
欲言无予和,挥杯劝孤影。
日月掷人去,有志不获骋。
念此怀悲凄,终晓不能静。
As flowers cannot blossom all year round,
So fortune cannot always well abound.
In spring the lotus blossoms on the lake;
In autumn it bears seeds on summer’s wake.
When hoary frost hits plants that still survive,
The wild weeds wither but remain alive.
其三
荣华难久居,盛衰不可量。
昔为三春蕖,今作秋莲房。
严霜结野草,枯悴未遽央。
While seasons change and life prolongs on earth,
I'll die and never have a second birth.
At the thought of all those good old days,
I,m crushed by sad emotions the scene conveys
日月还复周,我去不再阳。
眷眷往昔时,忆此断人肠。

陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
A worthy man aims high with lofty zeal,
But I regard long life as my ideal.
The relatives here gather in the hall;
The children live in peace within the wall.
I take a pleasure in the wine and song,
With goblets always flowing all day long.
其四
丈夫志四海,我愿不知老。
亲戚共一处,子孙还相保。
觞弦肆朝日,樽中酒不燥。
While I enjoy my life without constraint,
I early sleep and rise without complaint.
From my heart I scorn the worldly wise,
Who are torn by lusts like fire and ice.
As all the people end up in the grave,
For worthless fame there is no use to crave.
缓带尽欢娱,起晚眠常早。
孰若当世时,冰炭满怀抱。
百年归丘垄,用此空名道!
I’ve often called my youthful days to mind,
Overwhelmed with joys of every kind.

陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
With aims to ride the seas and seize the star,
I wished to take on wings and fly afar.
As time and tide flow by and years roll on,
Ambitions in my youthful days are gone.
I show no joy for jubilant affairs
Because I’m overwhelmed with woe and cares.
其五
忆我少壮时,无乐自欣豫。
猛志逸四海,骞翮思远翥。
荏苒岁月颓,此心稍已去。
值欢无复娱,每每多忧虑。
As my potent strength falls into decay,
My solid vigour fails me day by day.
Time presses onward like a sailing ship
And drives me forward in my lifelong trip.
I do not know how far I shall be pressed,
Nor do I know where I shall come to rest.
The ancients knew that time was sparse and dear;
This dreary thought oft gives me nameless fear.
气力渐衰损,转觉日不如。
壑舟无须臾,引我不得住。
5
陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
前途当几许,未知止泊处。
古人惜寸阴,念此使人惧。
When elderly people talked about their past,
I used to stop my ears and ran off fast.
Now that I have reached fifty years of age,
I follow suit and gossip like a sage.
Whenever 1 recall my youthful joy,
I've not the slightest pleasure of a boy.
其六
昔闻长者言,掩耳每不喜。
奈何五十年,忽已亲此事。
求我盛年欢,一毫无复意。
As time flows on and puts me in a maze,
1 can’t relive my life of good old days.
I’ll seek my pleasure with my scanty wealth,
To live a worthy life in stalwart health.
For my sons I,d better not leave gold behind
And drive the thought for afterlife from mind.
去去转欲速,此生岂再值。
倾家持作乐,竟此岁月驶。
有子不留金,何用身後置!

陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
From day to day the sun succeeds the moon;
The course of seasons moves on very soon.
When chilly winds sweep through bare twigs by day,
The fallen leaves are scattered on the way.
As I grow older with declining health,
My raven hair has long turned grey by stealth.
其七
日月不肯迟,四时相催迫。
寒风拂枯条,落叶掩长陌。
弱质与运颓,玄鬓早已白。
With whitish signs of age upon my head,
I know that dimming future lies ahead.
My home is like a house to host the guest,
I’m like the guest to meet my final rest.
Where am I to go? Where am I to go?
In Southern Hill Vm doomed to lie below.
素标插人头,前途渐就窄。
家为逆旅舍,我如当去客。
去去欲何之?南山有旧宅。
While official posts are not my need,
To live by doing farm-work is my creed.
7
陶渊明《杂诗八首》中英对照
Farm-work, however, is of no doubt good;
Husks and chaffs provide my staple food.
I’ve never hoped for more than may suffice,
But only want to eat enough coarse rice.
其八
代耕本非望,所业在田桑。
躬亲未曾替,寒馁常糟糠。
岂期过满腹,但愿饱粳粮。
In winter, homespun cloth will be enough;
In summer, gunny cloth is ample stuff.
Now I cannot have that which I need,
How sad and sorrow-filled it is indeed!
Everyone has got what he should get,
But my simple needs have not been met.
Maybe it’s the way of life, I think;
I,d best forget about it and have a drink!
御冬足大布,粗絺已应阳。
正尔不能得,哀哉亦可伤!
人皆尽获宜,拙生失其方。
理也可奈何!且为陶一觞。
