《白頭吟》英譯

白頭吟 （漢樂府相和歌辭）

皚如山上雪，皎若雲間月。
聞君有兩意，故來相決絕。
今日鬥酒會，明旦溝水頭。
躞蹀禦溝上，溝水東西流。
淒淒複淒淒，嫁娶不須啼。
願得一心人，白頭不相離。
竹竿何嫋嫋，魚尾何簁簁！
男兒重意氣，何用錢刀為！

As white as the snow on the mountain,
As bright as the moon in the cloud.
Heard that you were two-timing me,
So I come to bid a farewell.
  
Today we meet to drink a bucket of wine,
Tomorrow we break up on canal bank.
I shall stroll along the royal canal,
Where water is flowing to the east.
  
Heartbreaking and even more,
When married there's no need to cry.
Hope to have a faithful love,
Not being apart even when hair is white.
   
Bamboo stick is long and soft,
Fish tail joyfully sways. 
If a man cherished his love, 
Money shouldn't have changed his heart.
