天净沙秋思

马致远

枯藤老树昏鸦，小桥流水人家，古道西风瘦马，夕阳西下，

断肠人在天涯。

译作1：Tr. Wayne Schlepp译

Tune to “Sand and Sky”

----Autumn Thoughts

Dry vine,old tree,crow at dusk

Low bridge,stream running,cottages Ancient road,west wind,lean nag

The sun westerning

And one with breaking heart at the sky’s edge 省略冠词，减掉了拖沓松散之感，有节奏rhythm和音律melody美

To the Tune of Tianjingsha Withered vines hanging on old braches, Returning crows croaking at dusk.

A few houses hidden past a narrow bridge, And blow the bridge a quiet creek running。Down a worn path,in the west wind,

A lean horse comes plodding.The sun dips down in the west,

And the lovesick traveler is still at the end of the world.

Tune: Sunny Sand

Autumn Thoughts

Over old trees wreathed with rotten vines fly crows;

Under a small beside a cot a stream flows;

On ancient road in western breeze a lean horse goes.

Westwards declines the setting sun.

Far,far from home is the heart-broken one.

Autumn

Crows hovering over rugged trees wreathed with rotten vine--the day is about done. Yonder is a tiny bridge over a sparkling stream,and on the far bank, a pretty little village.

But the traveler has to go on down this ancient road,

The west wind moaning,his bony horse groaning, trudging towards the sinking sun,father and father away from home.

译作5：周方珠

Autumn Thought

To the Tune of Sky-Clear Sand

Withered vine,old tree,a raven at dusk crows, Tiny bridge,thatched cottages,the stream flows, Ancient road, bleak wind,a bony steed slows. The setting sun in the west glows,

The sorrow of the heart-broken traveler grows
