《烏衣巷》是唐代詩人劉禹錫的代表作之一。這是一首撫今吊古的詩篇是懷古組詩《金陵五題》中的第二首。此詩憑吊昔日東晉南京秦淮河上朱雀橋和南岸的烏衣巷的繁華鼎盛,而今野草叢生,荒涼殘照,感慨滄海桑田,人生多變。
《烏衣巷》 劉禹錫
朱雀橋邊野草花,烏衣巷口夕陽斜。
舊時(shí)王謝堂前燕,飛入尋常百姓家。
Wuyi or Swallows' Lane
Liu Yuxi
Beside the Zhuque Bridge wild flowers thickly grow,
Along the Wuyi Lane the sun is setting low.
Where once the swallows knew the mansions of the great,
They now to humbler homes would fly to nest and mate.
