2017年catti高級口譯:魚玄機·《暮春有感寄友人》

　　鶯語驚殘夢，輕妝改淚容。

　　竹陰初月薄，江靜晚煙濃。

　　濕觜銜泥燕，香須采蕊蜂。

　　獨憐無限思，吟罷亞枝松。

　　To a Friend, Feeling in LateSpring

　　YuXuanji

　　Thechatter of the nightingale

　　disruptsfragmented dreams;

　　alight dusting of powder

　　hidesa face tear-stained.

　　Inthe shadow of bamboos,

　　theearly moon is thin;

　　overthe quiet of the river,

　　theevening mist is thick.

　　Wettingits beak

　　isa swallow gathering mud;

　　perfumingits whiskers

　　isa bee collecting nectar.

　　Aloneand forlorn

　　asI endlessly long,

　　inthe drooping pines

　　Ifinish my song.

　　(Jennifer Carpenter 譯)

　　Moved by the End of Spring: Sentto a Friend

　　YuXuanji

　　Theoriole’s song startles me from the remnants of a dream,

　　Lightmake-up alters my tear-streaked face.

　　Throughshady bamboos the new moon is dim;

　　Overthe quiet river the evening mist is thick.

　　Damp-mouthedswallows carry mud,

　　Andbees, their feelers scented, gather pollen.

　　AloneI pity my endless longings

　　Andfinish my song beside the low-limbed pine trees.
