《離騷》是戰(zhàn)國(guó)時(shí)期著名詩(shī)人屈原的代表作之一,是中國(guó)古代漢族詩(shī)歌史上一首最長(zhǎng)的政治抒情詩(shī)。詩(shī)人從自敘身世、品德、理想寫起,抒發(fā)了自己遭讒言被害的苦悶與矛盾心情,揭露了楚王昏庸、群小猖獗與朝政日非的政治現(xiàn)實(shí),表現(xiàn)了詩(shī)人堅(jiān)持“美政” 理想、不附和邪惡勢(shì)力的自愛(ài)精神及對(duì)楚王朝至死不渝的忠誠(chéng)。
屈原 《楚辭·離騷》
紛吾既有此內(nèi)美兮,又重之以修能。扈江離與辟芷兮,紉秋蘭以為佩。
汨余若將不及兮,恐年歲之不吾與。朝搴阰之木蘭兮,夕攬洲之宿莽。
日月忽其不淹兮,春與秋其代序。惟草木之零落兮,恐美人之遲暮。
不撫壯而棄穢兮,何不改乎此度?乘騏驥以馳騁兮,來(lái)吾道夫先路!

With lavished innate qualities indued,
By art and skill my talents I renewed;
Angelic herbs and sweet selineas too,
And orchids late that by the water grew,
I wove for ornament; till creeping time,
Like water flowing, stole away my prime.
Magnolias of the glade I plucked at dawn,
At eve beside the stream took winter-thorn.
Without delay the sun and moon sped fast,
In swift succession spring and autumn passed;
The fallen flowers lay scattered on the ground,
The dusk might fall before my dream was found.
Had I not loved my prime and spurned the vile,
Why should I not have changed my former style?
My chariot drawn by steeds of race divine
I urged; to guide the king my sole design.
