唐詩三百首英譯 張喬：書邊事

五言律詩

張喬

書邊事

調角斷清鞦， 征人倚戍樓。

春風對青塚， 白日落梁州。

大漠無兵阻， 窮邊有客遊。

蕃情似此水， 長願曏南流。

ON THE BORDER

Though a bugle breaks the crystal air of autumn，

Soldiers， in the look-out， watch at ease today

The spring wind blowing across green graves

And the pale sun setting beyond Liangzhou.

For now， on grey plains done with war，

The border is open to travel again；

And Tartars can no more choose than rivers：

They are running， all of them， toward the south.
