水調(diào)歌頭·明月幾時有
蘇軾原作：
明月幾時有，把酒問青天。不知天上宮闕，今夕是何年。我欲乘風歸去，又恐瓊樓玉宇，高處不勝寒。起舞弄清影，何似在人間。
轉朱閣，低綺戶，照無眠。不應有恨，何事長向別時圓？人有悲歡離合，月有陰晴圓缺，此事古難全。但愿人長久，千里共嬋娟。
英文譯作：
How rare the moon, so round and clear!
With cup in hand, I ask of the blue sky,
"I do not know in the celestial sphere
What name this festive night goes by?"
I want to fly home, riding the air,
But fear the ethereal cold up there,
The jade and crystal mansions are so high!
Dancing to my shadow,
I feel no longer the mortal tie.
She rounds the vermilion tower,
Stoops to silk-pad doors,
Shines on those who sleepless lie.
Why does she, bearing us no grudge,
Shine upon our parting, reunion deny?
But rare is perfect happiness--
The moon does wax, the moon does wane,
And so men meet and say goodbye.
I only pray our life be long,
And our souls together heavenward fly!
在此，小編不得不感嘆一句，中文實在博大精深，其精妙之處斷不是其他語言可以翻譯出的。雖然林語堂先生實為大師級別，但也無法還原中文的意境。因此，小編一直都認為中國人很少有人拿到諾貝爾文學獎也是有原因的——沒有一種語言可以復刻中國文字的`韻味和靈魂！
話又說遠了，但是如果在四級考試中，你能將“人有悲歡離合，月有陰晴圓缺”寫成英文的模樣"The moon does wax, the moon does wane, and so men meet and say goodbye.（引用林老的翻譯）"，想必閱卷老師對你的印象一定增分不少呢！
