采桑子
歐陽修
輕舟短棹西湖好,
綠水逶迤,
芳草長堤,
隱隱笙歌處處隨。
無風(fēng)水面琉璃滑,
不覺船移,
微動漣漪,
驚起沙禽掠岸飛。
Gathering Mulberry Leaves
Translated by Xu Yuanchong & Xu Ming
Viewed from a light boat with short oars, West Lake is fair.
Green water winds along
The banks overgrown with sweet grass; here and there
Faintly we hear a flute song.
The water surface is smooth like glass when no wind blows;
I feel the boat moves no more.
Leaving ripples behind, it goes,
The startled waterbirds skim the flat sandy shore.
【賞析】
這首詞是作者晚年《采桑子》組詞中的一首。它以輕松淡雅的筆調(diào),描寫泛舟穎州(今安徽阜陽)西湖時所見的美麗景色。全詞色調(diào)清麗,風(fēng)格娟秀,充滿詩情畫意,讀來清新可喜。
