波斯短歌行译笺 其十三 当代 · 钟锦
七言绝句 押冬韵
眼前富贵赚渠侬，海上蓬莱去不逢。
还我及时一杯酒，兴亡休问景阳钟。
注：○渠侬：他，方言也。杨万里《过瘦牛岭》诗：“夜来尚有馀樽在，急唤渠侬破客愁。”○蓬莱：《史记·封禅书》：“自威、宣、燕昭使人入海求蓬莱、方丈、瀛洲，此三神山者，其传在勃海中。”译原文“先知之天堂”，皆幻境也。○景阳钟：南朝齐武帝以宫深不闻端门鼓漏声，置钟于景阳楼上。事见《南齐书·皇后传·武穆裴皇后》。二句译原文“但得现钱，毋问契券。宫外鼓声尚遥，勿挂心耳。”
Some for the Glories of This World; and some
Sigh for the Prophet's Paradise to come;
Ah, take the Cash, and let the Credit go,
Nor heed the rumble of a distant Drum!
Some for the Glories of This World; and some
Sigh for the Prophet's Paradise to come;
Ah, take the Cash, and let the Credit go,
Nor heed the rumble of a distant Drum!
