夜来风雨声，花落知多少。
】（唐孟浩然《春晓》）①I awake light-hearted this morning of spring. / Everywhere round me the singing of birds –/ But now I remember the night, the storm, / And I wonder how many blossoms were broken. (Witter Bynner & Kiang Kang-hu) ②Into my slumber in spring steal beams of morning, / and now to my ears come the voices of birds all around. / Yet I heard the sounds of winds and rains in the night, / I wonder how many flowers are fallen down to the ground. （万昌盛王僴中）③Oversleeping in spring I missed the dawn; / Now everywhere the cries of birds are heard. / Tumult of wind and rain had filled the night — / How many blossoms fell during the storm? （张廷琛& Bruce M. Wilson）④O’er spring drowse, lo! The morning dawns, / And everywhere b irds’ songs call. / It rained last night, and winds rustled so — / Plenty, me thinks, the blossoms’ fall. （林同济）⑤ Slumbering, I know not the spring dawn is peeping, / But everywhere the singing birds are cheeping. / Last night I heard the rain dripping and wind weeping, / how many petals are now on the ground sleeping? （吴钧陶）⑥Spring slumber slips by till daybreak, / Around me the birds are chirping awake. / Now I recall last night the wind and the rain, / And wonder how many petals have fallen. （刘军平）⑦Unconscious of dawning in the spring, / I hear birds crying all around. / There was sound of wind and rain all night; / How many flowers have fallen aground? （赵甄陶）⑧I wake to find the spring morn bright, / And hear birds singing all around. / Wind and rain was heavy last night, / How many flowers fell aground? （杨纪鹤）⑨This morn of spring in bed I’m lying, not to awake till birds are crying. After one night of wind and showers, how many are the fallen flowers! （许渊冲）⑩I slept in spring, unconscious of the dawn, / When songs of birds were heard on every lawn; / At night came sounds of rain and wind that blew, / How many a blossom fell no one knew！（许渊冲）⑪In springtide’s dreams the dawn is sweetly drowned; / Till everywhere the songs of birds resound. / I heard last night the rush of wind and rain. / How many flowers have fallen to the ground? （许渊冲）⑫Late! This spring morning as I awake I know. / All around me the birds are crying. The storm / last night, I sensed its fury, How many, / I wonder, are fallen, poor dear flowers!（翁显良）⑬I scarcely knew it was dawn, So sound was the sleep of spring; / Everywhere there was birdsong. / All night long was the sough of wind and rain; / How many flowers have fallen to the ground? （翁显良）⑭How suddenly the morning comes in spring! / On every side you hear the sweet birds sing: / Last night amidst the storm —Ah, who can tell, / With wind and rain, how many blossoms fell? （翁显良）⑮Sleeping in the spring, one hardly knows it’s daylight, / Birds are heard everywhere trilling. /There’ve been sounds of wind and rain in the night, / How many blossoms have been falling? （翁显良）⑯I slept in spring not conscious of the dawn, / But heard the gay birds chattering all round, / I remember, there was a storm at night. / Pray, how many blossoms have fallen down? （翁显良）⑰Sleeping in spring oblivious of dawn / everywhere I hear birds / after the wind and rain last night / I wonder how many petals fell (Red Pine) ⑱Asleep in the spring, dawn comes to me unawares; / I hear the birds singing all round. / When night comes there’s the sound of wind and rain; / Who knows how many blossoms fall to the ground. (Peter Harris)⑲I scarcely knew it was dawn, / So round was the sleep of spring; / Everywhere there was birdsong. / All night long was the sough of wind and rain; / How many flowers have fallen to the ground? （刘师舜1967）⑳How suddenly the morning comes in Spring! / On every side you hear the sweet birds sing. / Last night amidst the storm – Ah, who can tell, / With wind and rain, how many blossoms fell? (DAWN IN SPRING John Turner) 21.In drowsy spring I slept till daybreak / When the birds cry here and there, I awake. / Last night I heard a storm of wind and rain, / How many blossoms have fallen again? （《中国翻译》杂志2001年第2期）22. This spring morning in bed I’m lying / Not awake till I hear birds crying. / After one night of wind and showers / How many are the fallen flowers? （《中国翻译》杂志2001年第2期）注：这是本人正在编著的《汉英翻译大辞典》中的一个词条。

静夜思李白床前明月光,疑是地上霜. 举头望明月,低头思故乡. In the Still of the NightI descry（望见，看到）bright moonlight in front of my bed.I suspect it to be hoary（白的，灰白的）frost on the floor.I watch the bright moon, as I tilt（使倾斜）back my head.I yearn（怀念）, while stooping（俯身）, for my homeland more.(徐忠杰)A Tranquil（安静的，安宁的）Night Abed（在床上的）, I see a silver light, I wonder if it's frost aground.Looking up, I find the moon bright; Bowing, in homesickness I'm drowned. (许渊冲译)1，In the Quiet NightSo bright a gleam（微光，光束）on the foot of my bed---Could there have been a frost already?Lifting my head to look, I found that it was moonlight. Sinking back again, I thought suddenly of home.(Tr. Witter Bynner)2，Night ThoughtsI wake, and moonbeams play around my bed,Glittering（闪光）like hoar-frost to my wandering eyes; Up towards the glorious moon I raise my head,Then lay me down---and thoughts of home arise.( Tr. Herbert A. Giles)3，On a Quiet NightI saw the moonlight before my couch（沙发，床）,And wondered if it were not the frost on the ground.I raised my head and looked out on the mountain noon, I bowed my head and though of my far-off home.One-HeartedWhen those red berries （浆果，干果）come in springtime,Flushing (迅速增长，绽出新芽)on your southland branches,Take home an armful, for my sake,As a symbol of our love.相思红豆生南国春来发几枝愿君多采撷此物最相思A Song at Wei-chenA morning-rain has settled the dust in Wei-chen; Willows are green again in the tavern（小旅馆，旅舍）dooryard ...Wait till we empty one more cup --West of Yang Gate there'll be no old friends.渭城曲渭城朝雨邑轻尘客舍青青柳色新劝君更尽一杯酒西出阳关无故人A Night-mooring（停泊）Near Maple（枫）BridgeWhile I watch the moon go down, a crow（乌鸦）caws（乌鸦叫）through the frost;Under the shadows of maple-trees a fisherman moves with his torch;And I hear, from beyond Su-Chou, from the temple on Cold Mountain, Ringing for me, here in my boat, the midnight bell.枫桥夜泊月落乌啼霜满天江枫渔火对愁眠姑苏城外寒山寺夜半钟声到客船清明(唐)杜牧清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。

唐诗英译鉴赏
Wild grasses spread over ancient plain; With spring and fall they come and go. Fire tries to burn them up in vain; They rise again when spring winds blow. Their fragrance overruns the way; Their green invades the ruined town. To see my friend go away, My sorrow grows like grass overgrown.
韩愈
新年都未有芳华， 二月初惊见草芽。 白雪却嫌春色晚， 故穿庭树作飞花。
Spring Snow
On vernal day no flowers were in bloom, alas!
In second moon I’m glad to see the budding grass.
But white snow dislikes the late coming vernal breeze,
My door off says to eastward going ships “Goodbye!”

唐诗英译1, Spring MorningThis morn of spring in bed I’m lying,Not to awake till birds are crying.After one night of wind and showers,How many are the fallen flowers!2, The Dale of Singing Birds鸟鸣涧Sweet laurel blooms fall unenjoyed,Vague hills dissolve into night void.The moonrise startles birds to sing,Their twitters fill the dale with spring.3, Snow on the RiverFrom hills to hills no bird in flight,From paths to paths no man in sight.A lonely fisherman afloatIs fishing snow in lonely boat.4, Thoughts on a Still NightBefore my bed a pool of light---Can it be hoarfrost on the ground?Looking up, I find the moon bright,Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned.5, A Night Scene Viewed from a Boat 舟夜书所见查慎行In moonless night a fishing lantern sheds,Like a lonely firefly a feeble gleam.The night wind raises wave on wave and spreads 微微风簇浪，a skyful of stars all over the stream.6, Home-ComingYoung, I left home and not till old do I come back,My accent is unchanged, my hair no longer black.The children whom I meet on the way don’t know me, “Where are you from, dear sir?” they smile and ask with glee.7, The Mourning DayA drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day,The mourner’s heart is going to break on his way.Where can a wine-shop be found to drown his sad hours?A cowherd points to a cot’mid apricot flowers.8, On the Stork TowerThe sun beyond the mountain glows,The Yellow River seawards flows.You can enjoy a grander sight,By climbing to a greater height.。

《静夜思》英译文赏析-文档资料
《静夜思》英译⽂赏析-⽂档资料《静夜思》英译⽂赏析李⽩,静夜思:床前明⽉光,疑是地上霜。
举头望明⽉,低头思故乡。
李⽩的这⾸五⾔绝句清新隽永,意味深长,千百年来为⼈们⼴为流传。
近百年来,许多中外学者和翻译家也先后将其译成英⽂,本⽂将对其中的五个译本逐⼀加以评析。
译⽂⼀:In the Quiet Night.So bright a gleam on the foot of my bed――Could there have been a frost already Lifting up my head to look, I found that it was moonlight.Sinking back again, I thought suddenly of home.(Witter Bynner 译) 朱炳荪先⽣称赞此译说“英译颇有独到之处,深刻地表达了原作中⽇夜思乡的惆怅之感,⽽在层次安排⽂字运⽤上更是加深了异乡孤⼉对⽉哀愁之情”(1980)。
他具体分析到: gleam⼀词没有⾔明⽉光为第⼆句“疑”字作了铺垫,使“疑”更⾃然,⼜省了重复明⽉的⿇烦。
第⼆句的译法颇具匠⼼,不但把“疑”的⼼理活动写活了,还有“疑”的动作思考,即传达出诗⼈的声⾳语⽓,⼜把诗中⼈物的平⾯形象变成了凸⾯的⽴体形象。
尤其是那⾃问的语⽓把个旅居异乡的游⼦⽇夜思乡的哀愁刻画得精深⼊⽊(ibid)。
朱先⽣的分析是精辟的。
此句的译法,后来⼈们多有借鉴,赵甄陶教授的译⽂中,第⼆句的译法与Bynner此句颇为相似,只是措词稍有变化⽽已。
当然此译也并⾮⼗全⼗美。
孙⼤⾬先⽣就认为Bymmer把“床前”译为on the foot of my bed是误译。
据孙先⽣的说法,“床前”应指床前的地上。
他提出的理由是诗⼈在京都长安(即今西安)作此诗时,西安地区在深秋⼈们不可能把床铺设在⾼于地⾯的⼟坑上烧⽕取暖,故床应是⽤⽊板铺在地上的。

九月九日忆山东兄弟古诗英文翻译
九月九日忆山东兄弟古诗英文翻译《九月九日忆山东兄弟》是王维的诗作。
王维这首《九月九日忆山东兄弟》诗载于《全唐诗》卷一百二十八。
九月九日忆山东兄弟[唐]王维独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲。
遥知兄弟登高处，遍插茱萸少一人。
浅析六版本《九月九日忆山东兄弟》英译译文一(王宝童，上海世图2005版《王维百首(汉英对照图文本)》)：On Double Ninth Day Thinking of My Brothers at HomeA lonely stranger in a strange land I’m cast,Sore sick for my dears on every festive day.By now my brothers must some heights have passed,But a cornel wearer missing’ll damp the day.第二行的sore sick是英文中不存在的表达，就像汉语没有“酸病”一样。
根据Cambridge Advanced Learners’ Dictionary & Thesaurus, dear的名词含义有两个： [C usually singular] informal a kind person和[as form of address] used to address someone you love or are being friendly to, not used between men。
如此看来，译文这样用dears是不对的。
第三行的pass意为“经过”，不一定是“登高”。
最后一句的missing指人时是“失踪”的意思，用在这里显然不合适。
damp the play既非英文固定表达，又不易从字面推断想要表达的意思(把戏剧弄湿了?)。
和前面的sore sick一样，这也属于译者捏造英文表达，对于英语母语者来说这样的“创造”只会让他们读的一头雾水。

高玉昆：唐诗英译唐诗英译工作在当今世界日益频繁的中西方文化交流中占有重要地位，为传播辉煌的唐诗艺术、促进世界诗歌创作发展，起到了积极作用。
本文回顾历史，面对现实，考察了近百年的唐诗英译历程，结合翻译理论的发展，归纳分析了唐诗英译实践和理论建设中的不同方向及其探索。
一种是重视声韵，用传统英语诗律翻译唐诗，以求再现唐诗的整体美；一种则注重意象，用自由的散体译诗，以求传达唐诗艺术的真质。
在主张以自由体译诗的学者、译家中，也各自有不同的努力，或简省、或详尽；或照顾到韵脚，或全抛开押韵和诗行，他们都有各自的成功与不足。
本文认为，应在今后的唐诗英译工作中，把这两种方向结合起来，努力解决翻译中形式与内容、韵律与达意的矛盾，达到一种“化境”。
这样的理论与实践的探索，将有益于世界文学的发展及中西方文化交流。
一具有辉煌艺术成就的我国唐代诗歌，是世界艺术宝库中的瑰宝，李白和杜甫等伟大诗人的诗篇传遍了各个大陆，受到各民族人民的喜爱，特别是在英语世界，得到了广泛的传播。
据今所知，西方最早大力进行唐诗英译工作的是18世纪英国汉学家、诗人詹尼斯（S.Jenyns），其遗作经后人整理，编成《唐诗三百首选读》及《续集》（Selections from the 300 Poems of the Tang Dynasty， A further Selections from the 300 Poems of the Tang Dynasty），于20世纪40年代在伦敦出版。
最早英译唐代诗人专集的是小薰良（S.Obata），其《李白诗集》（The Works of Li Po， the Chinese Poet），于1922年在纽约出版。
最早英译唐诗选本的是宾纳（W.Bynner）和江亢虎合译的《群玉山头：唐诗三百首》（The Jade Mountain,a Chinese Anthology BeingThree Handred Poems of the Tang Dynasty），为蘅塘退士所编《唐诗三百首》的全译本，1929年在纽约出版。
自上世纪末以来，其他著名的唐诗英译家有戴维斯爵士（Sir J.F.Davis）、翟理斯（H.A.Giles）、庞德（E.Pound）、克兰默一宾（L.CranmerByng）、韦利（A.Waley）、洛维尔（A·Lowell）、弗莱彻（W.J.Fletcher）、洪业（煨莲，William Hung）、柳无忌、欧文（S.Owen）等等，他们做了大量的唐诗英译工作。
唐诗的英译工作不仅把唐诗艺术介绍给英语世界，使西方读者得到美感享受，而且还对英语世界的新诗创作产生了巨大影响，如现代派诗人庞德、艾略特（T.S.Eliot）就深受唐诗艺术的影响，从中寻找欧美新诗运动的推动力，为世人所共知。
美国批评家卡茨（M.Katz）就注意到意象派女诗人洛维尔的诗《凌晨两点：一条伦敦大街》（A London Thoroughfare：2 a.m.）与杜甫《月夜》的关系，这两首诗都是描写了在闺房中倚窗望月的妇女形象。
美国当代诗人雷克斯洛斯（K.Rexroth，中文名字叫王红公）曾说：“我认为中国诗对我的影响，远远大过其他的诗。
我自己写诗时，也大多遵循一种中国式的法则（a kind of Chinese rule）”。
他曾大量翻译唐诗并予以发表。
1969年美国出版了一本当代诗选《赤裸的诗：近年美国开放体的诗歌》（Naked Poetry:Recent American Poetry in Open Forms），选录16首他的诗作，其中14首其实是杜甫等人诗的英译，由于他年辈较早，所以他的诗作列于书首，诗评家们诙谐地感叹道，美国当代诗歌的发展序幕原来竟是由中国唐诗开启的。
当代诗人勃来（R.Bly）也承认他自己以及他朋友们的确受到白居易、李贺等唐代诗人的影响。
在我国改革开放形势下的今天，面对世界东西方日益增强的文化交流，我国的唐诗英译工作正处于一个新的繁荣时期。
80年代以来，国内已大量出版发行由我国学者、译家翻译的唐诗译本，如杨宪益的《唐宋诗文选译》（与格雷蒂斯Gladys合译）、徐忠杰的《唐诗二百首新译》、王守义的《唐宋诗词英译》（与诺弗尔J.Neville合译），吴钧陶的《杜甫诗英译》、许渊冲的《唐诗三百首新译》、《李白诗选译》、《唐诗一百五十首英译》、张廷琛的《唐诗一百首英译》（与魏博思Bruce M. Wilson合译），以及翁显良的《古译英译》等。
众所周知，把不同民族的文学、特别是诗歌，从语言形式到思想感情进行翻译，是一件难度极大的工作，因而西方流传一句意大利谚语：“翻译者即叛逆者”（Traduttore traditore）。
许多诗人、理论家们也持有“诗不可译”观点，诗人雪莱（P.B.Shelley）在《诗辩》（Defense of Poetry）中认为，企图把诗人的创作从一种语言搬移到另一种语言，就好比把一朵紫罗兰投入坩埚，来化验出它的颜色和香味的数据，“因此，译诗是徒劳无功的”。
弗罗斯特（R.Frost）也认为诗一经翻译就会失去它自身的特质（Poetry is what gets lost in translation）。
语言学家雅各布森（R.Jakobson）断定诗严格说来是不能翻译的。
话虽然说得令人沮丧，但自詹尼斯以来的优秀译家的唐诗英译实践证明，诗是可以趋近准确而传神地译成另一种语言形式，在另一国度传诵。
唐诗英译工作还将继续在东西方文化交流中发挥其重要作用。
歌德（J.W.Goethe）在1827年7月写给苏格兰作家卡莱尔（T.Carlyle）的信中说：“无论说翻译有什么不足之处，它仍然不失为世界上各项事务中最重要、最有价值的一项工作。
”我们今天更应该重视唐诗英译工作，弘扬祖国古代灿烂文化，以利于世界文学的发展。
对于文学作品的翻译，应当走什么样的途径？用什么方法最合适？从公元前古罗马的西塞罗（M. T. Cicero）、贺拉斯（Horace），到本世纪初意大利的克罗齐（B. Croce）、德国的本亚明（W.Benjamin），人们从理论上进行了广泛而深入的探讨。
英国翻译理论家诺克斯（R. Knox）曾把历史上的翻译理论归纳为两个问题：是文学翻译还是逐字翻译？译者是否有权选择任何文体与词语来表达原文的意思[8]？这是很恰切的。
奥地利哲学家维特根斯坦（L.Wittgenstein）指出：“从一种语言翻译成另一种语言是一项数学任务，把一首抒情诗翻译成外语好比解一道数学题，……这个问题是可以解决的，但并无系统的解决办法”。
唐诗英译的实践及理论探索正是如此，它们一直在提出问题：是忠实地体现唐诗原文的形式、韵律，还是重视传达唐诗原文的思想、精神？是追求精炼、含蓄的传情达意，还是保全原诗的真实与精确？学者、译家们一直在问题的两端之间艰难地走着钢丝，追求着某种完美的“合格翻译”（adequate translation）及“等值效果”（equivalent effect），各持不同的宗旨和方法，弯弯曲曲地走过近百年的唐诗英译进程。
回顾历史，面对现状，考察这些翻译实绩，总结经验，会强有力地促进这项有益的工作健康地发展。
二唐诗的光辉不仅体现在它具有壮丽的诗境、清新的笔墨以及深沉的情感，而且还体现在它富于变化的格律形式、流畅而顿挫的音韵，它充分利用了汉语所能提供的各种手段——节奏、平仄、押韵、对仗、用典等。
唐诗翻译家们首先碰到的就是这些形式美，人们意识到了这项工作的艰难。
连法国的唐诗翻译家埃尔韦—圣—德尼候爵（le marquis d'Herveg—Saint—Denys）在1862年出版的法译本《唐代诗选》前言中说：“这项工作是很冒险的，也是艰辛而痛苦的，因为我们发现那些真正的优美之处无法用任何一门欧洲语言传达出来”。
唐诗英译的先行者詹尼斯也感叹道：“诗的美不仅存在于诗人说了些什么，还存在于他怎样地去说。
而且这种具有诗人个性的表达是那样精致，就好比一朵花不能接枝到另一株树上一样。
诗的内容也许可以被再现，但诗的动态肯定要在翻译中失掉，几乎很难做到两全其美。
当把一部辞典放到桌上时，诗的美就会从窗户飞出去”。
但是，翻译家们还是勇敢地接受了这项“冒险”任务。
正如上世纪末法国大作家福楼拜（G.F.Flaubert）的朋友路易·布耶（L.Bouilhet）打算在法译本中重现唐诗形式或找出其对应形式，采用当时很少人使用的七音步形式译唐诗一样（法国学者认为这大概是源于在唐诗中被奉为经典的七言与五言律诗形式），早期的唐诗英译者也试图用英语诗律来再现或对应唐诗的形式美。
但布耶等法国人的尝试是有限的，而英国人却迈出了一大步。
翟理斯在1898年出版的《用英语诗律翻译的中国诗歌》（Chinese Poetry in English Verse）就将唐诗内容注入英语诗律形式中。
如译王昌龄的七言绝句《闺怨》：At The WarSee the young wife whose bosom ne'er has ached with cruel pain!—In gay array she mounts the tower when spring comes round again.Sudden she sees the willow trees their newest green put on,And sighs for her husband far away in search of glory gone.（闺中少妇不知愁，春日凝妆上翠楼；忽见陌头杨柳色，悔教夫婿觅封候。
）押韵用整齐的ABABCDCD形式；单数行用四音步，双数行用三音步，这是英语诗的常用诗格。
但英诗八行诗（Ottawa Rima）一般为五音步，法国体八行诗（Triolet）也是如此，而这首译诗却用三、四音步。
译诗双数行首字不大写，退行写起，可见译者有让读者把这首译诗当成四行诗看待的意思，如果这样，就成为每行七音步，这在当时英诗创作中是罕见的，这种节奏的安排有可能是有意对应唐诗绝句四行七言的形式，译者运用抑扬格，也有可能是对应唐诗形式中的平仄安排。
所以，我们可以把这种情况看做成译者把英诗格律与唐诗格律融合的结果，正如吕叔湘所指出：翟理斯的译诗“多少都受了中文诗体的影响”。
[14]当然，他对这首诗的诗题内涵的翻译不甚准确，并且为了英诗格律的整齐而颠倒一些词语，但总的说来，翟理斯的唐诗英译韵律流畅，至今还有学者建议选入英语教材或作为精读，让中国学生“细品深摹”[15]。
韦利在1918年出版的《中国诗歌170首》（A Handred and SeventyChinese Poems）中，也尝试了一种1916年至1923年间流行的霍普金斯（G.M.Hopkins）称为“跳跃式格律”（Sprung rhythm）的诗格来翻译唐诗，在英语译文中用重音来体现唐诗中的每个汉字发音效果，在重音之间嵌入非重读音节，如译白居易的《病中五绝》其五：IllnessDear friends,there is no cause for so much sympathy.I shall certainly manage from time to time to take my wallks abroad.All that matters is an active mind, what is the use of feet?By land one can ride in a carrying-chair; by water,be rowed in aboat.（交亲不要苦相忧，亦拟时时强出游。
