雙語詩歌翻譯|杜牧-《邊上聞胡茄》

詩有詠正面難于出色，而側(cè)擊旁敲，更為得力者，此類詩是也。蘇武，絕域羈臣，備嘗艱苦。作者既詠悲笳感人，復(fù)借笳聲以詠蘇武，用“一聽頭白”四字，以見十九年中歷人所難堪之境；況悠長歲月，所聞?wù)邔幹购?！此二句，所謂力透紙背矣。

《邊上聞胡笳》 杜牧

何處吹笳薄暮天？塞垣高鳥沒狼煙。
游人一聽頭堪白，蘇武曾經(jīng)十九年。

Hearing Tartar Clarinet on the Border
Du Mu

Whence is blown the clarinet at sunset?
Border mountain parapets 'neath a high bird
Hideth wolf dung smoke columns from one's sight.
Visitors hearing it would have their hair turned white.
For nineteen years all along, Su Wu had this heard!
