遣悲懷之三

元稹

遣悲懷之三

閑坐悲君亦自悲， 百年都是幾多時(shí)?

鄧攸無子尋知命， 潘岳悼亡猶費(fèi)詞。

同穴窅冥何所望? 他生緣會(huì)更難期。

惟將終夜長開眼， 報(bào)答平生未展眉。

AN ELEGY III

I sit here alone, mourning for us both.

How many years do I lack now of my threescore and ten?

There have been better men than I to whom heaven denied a son,

There was a poet better than I whose dead wife could not hear him.

What have I to hope for in the darkness of our tomb?

You and I had little faith in a meeting after death-

Yet my open eyes can see all night

That lifelong trouble of your brow
