帕布莉卡鹧鸪[1]
郑谷
暖戏烟芜锦翼齐，
品流应得近山鸡。
雨昏青草湖[2]边过，
花落黄陵庙[3]里啼。
游子乍闻征袖湿，
佳人才唱[4]翠眉低。
相呼相应湘江阔，
苦竹丛深日向西。
注释：
[1] 鹧鸪：产于我国南部，形似雌雉，体大如鸠。古人称它的鸣叫声为“钩辀格磔”，民间以为其叫声极像“行不得也哥哥”，所以古人常借其声以抒写逐客留人之情。
[2] 青草湖：据盛弘之《荆州记》记载，青草湖就是古巴丘湖，在洞庭湖东南，后来青草湖也就成为洞庭湖的通称。
[3] 黄陵庙：位于湘阴县北洞庭湖畔。传说帝舜南巡，死于苍梧，娥皇、女英二妃溺死于湘江，后人就在湘水岸边立祠堂以表纪念，这祠堂就是黄陵庙。
[4] 唱：这里是指唱《鹧鸪曲》。据《韵语阳秋》记载，《鹧鸪曲》是效仿鹧鸪声而成之曲，是晚唐新声。
To the Partridges
Zheng Gu
Over warm misty grassland wing to wing you fly.
As fair and good as pheasants in the mountain high.
When Grass-green Lake is darkened in rain, you pass by;
When flowers fall on the Imperial Tomb, you cry.
A roamer would wet his sleeves with tears on heating your song;
His wife’d sing after you with lowered eyebrows long.
You echo each other on Southern River wide;
The sun sets on the bamboo grove by the Tombside.
The partridge seems to cry in Chinese: “Don’t go, brother!” The Imperial Tomb refers to the tomb of Emperor Shun who died by the side of the Grass-green Lake and whose wife came to shed tears on the bamboos by the tombside till they were specked.
