五言古诗英汉对照-夕次盱眙县

韦应物

夕次盱眙县

落帆逗淮镇， 停舫临孤驿。

浩浩风起波， 冥冥日沈夕。

人归山郭暗， 雁下芦洲白。

独夜忆秦关， 听钟未眠客。

Five-character-ancient-verse

Wei Yingwu

MOORING AT TWILIGHT IN YUYI DISTRICT

Furling my sail near the town of Huai,

I find for harbour a little cove

Where a sudden breeze whips up the waves.

The sun is growing dim now and sinks in the dusk.

People are coming home. The bright mountain-peak darkens.

Wildgeese fly down to an island of white weeds.

……At midnight I think of a northern city-gate,

And I hear a bell tolling between me and sleep.
