雙語詩歌翻譯|劉禹錫-《蜀先主廟》

《蜀先主廟》是唐代詩人劉禹錫創(chuàng)作的一首五言律詩，被選人《全唐詩》中。蜀先主廟原建在夔州（治所在今重慶市奉節(jié)縣東）白帝山上。劉禹錫曾于唐穆宗長慶元年（821年）到四年（824年）間任夔州刺史，此詩當(dāng)作于此時(shí)。此詩意在贊譽(yù)英雄，鄙薄庸碌，贊揚(yáng)了劉備的功業(yè)，慨嘆蜀漢事業(yè)后繼非人，總結(jié)蜀漢亡國的歷史教訓(xùn)。首聯(lián)寫先主廟堂威勢(shì)逼人，頷聯(lián)贊劉備的英雄業(yè)績，頸聯(lián)為劉備功業(yè)未成、嗣子不肖而嘆息，尾聯(lián)感嘆后主亡國。全詩措詞精警凝煉，對(duì)仗警辟工整，風(fēng)格沉著超邁，前半寫功德，后半寫衰敗，以形象垂戒當(dāng)世。

劉禹錫·《蜀先主廟》

天地英雄氣，千秋尚凜然。
勢(shì)分三足鼎，業(yè)復(fù)五銖錢。
得相能開國，生兒不象賢。
凄涼蜀故妓，來舞魏宮前。

At the Temple of Liu Bei
Liu Yuxi
A hero he was! In Cathay, he had no peers.
His lasting name will survive all the passing years.
Among the Three Kingdoms, his had the mightiest reign;
Our land's ancient glory, he strove hard to regain.
Prestige earned him a wise premier, prop of the state;
Time left his throne to a frail son, the will of fate.
Sadly the captive girls came to dance for the foe,
While his son drank by, sensing not the sign of woe.
