五言古诗英汉对照-春泛若耶溪

　　綦毋潜

　　春泛若耶溪

　　幽意无断绝， 此去随所偶；

　　晚风吹行舟， 花路入溪口。

　　际夜转西壑， 隔山望南斗。

　　潭烟飞溶溶， 林月低向后。

　　生事且弥漫， 愿为持竿叟。

　　A BOAT IN SPRING ON RUOYA LAKE

　　Thoughtful elation¹ has no end：

　　Onward² I bear it to whatever come.

　　And my boat and I, before the evening breeze

　　Passing flowers, entering the lake,

　　Turn at nightfall toward the western valley,

　　Where I watch the south star over the mountain

　　And a mist that rises, hovering³ soft,

　　And the low moon slanting⁴ through the trees；

　　And I choose to put away from me every worldly matter

　　And only to be an old man with a fishing-pole.
