杜牧《泊秦淮》 -经典诗词英译-中英双语赏析

泊秦淮

[唐]杜牧

烟[1]笼寒水月笼沙，

夜泊秦淮近酒家。

商女[2]不知亡国恨，

隔江犹唱后庭花[3]。

注释：

[1]烟：烟雾。

[2]商女：卖唱的歌女。

[3]后庭花：指《玉树后庭花》一曲。南朝陈后主曾作此曲与后宫美女寻欢作乐，终致亡国。

Moored on River Qinhuai

Du Mu

Cold water and sand bars veiled in misty moonlight,

I moor on River Qinhuai near wine shops at night.

The songstress knows not the grief of the captive king,

By riverside she sings his song of Parting Spring.
