（古詩英譯）論詩三十首（二）金 – 元好問

論詩三十首（二）金 – 元好問

 

曹劉坐嘯虎生風，四海無人角兩雄。

可惜並州劉越石，不教橫槊建安中。

 

A Quatrain by Yuan Hao-wen (Jin Dynasty)

 

Both Liu and Cao, crouching tigers, whirl winds to roar,

Within four seas, none outshines their poetic lore.

Alas, that Liu Yue-shi of Bingzhou was not born

In Jian’an’s age, where his bold spear-like brush could soar.

 

Tr. Ziyuzile
