（古詩英譯）浣溪沙 誰念西風獨自涼 – （清）納蘭性德

浣溪沙 – （清）納蘭性德

 

A Verse by Nalan Xingde

 

誰念西風獨自涼。

蕭蕭黃葉閉疏窗。

沉思往事立殘陽。

 

Ah, who’d heed the lonely hissing west wind so chill?

Shrouding carved windows, autumn leaves shed with a shrill.

I ponder the past, in afterglow, standing still.

 

被酒莫驚春睡重，

賭書消得潑茶香。

當時隻道是尋常。

 

O ne’er ashamed of deep spring sleep allured by wine,

Bets on verse, to win the first tea drink, Jack and Jill.

Which, taken for granted, now we cannot fulfill.
