唐詩三百首英譯 韋應物：寄全椒山中道士

五言古詩

韋應物

寄全椒山中道士

今朝郡齋冷， 忽唸山中客；

澗底束荊薪， 歸來煮白石。

欲持一瓢酒， 遠慰風雨夕；

落葉滿空山， 何処尋行跡。

A POEM TO A TAOIST HERMIT CHUANJIAO MOUNTAIN

My office has grown cold today；

And I suddenly think of my mountain friend

Gathering firewood down in the valley

Or boiling white stones for potatoes in his hut……

I wish I might take him a cup of wine

To cheer him through the evening storm；

But in fallen leaves that have heaped the bare slopes，

How should I ever find his footprints！
