柳宗元 《江雪》 《Snowing River》

From the hills all flying birds has vanished,
From all paths trace of people diminished ,
On the only boat in the snowing river so cold,
Lonely fishing an old fellow, with grass hat and grass coat.

千山鸟飞绝，
万径人踪灭。
孤舟蓑笠翁，
独钓寒江雪。

蒋捷《虞美人-听雨》《Listen to the rain》

Listen to the rain up in the club when I was young,
To our bed curtain the red candle shed lights on.
Listen to it in the Ferry when being middle-aged.
While the lone goose crying over
Freezing wind, endless river and the drooping cloud.

Still listening to rain now under a temple house,
Already  snowy  are  my  earlocks，
No Longer I care about the joy and sorrow,
Despite at stairs all till dawn
The rain drops and drops so.

少年听雨歌楼上, 红烛昏罗帐。
壮年听雨客舟中, 江阔云低, 断雁叫西风。

而今听雨僧庐下, 鬓已星星也。
悲欢离合总无情, 一任阶前, 点滴到天明

试以骚体译叶芝《WHEN YOU ARE OLD》《当你老去》

之子之衰兮云鬓杂然
炉畔巍巍兮时俯时眠
一卷在手兮读耶梦耶
或梦款款兮软顾深瞻

世多君子兮爱子清仪
慕子窈窕兮孰真孰虚
心灵之慕兮世惟斯人
花颜纵逝兮念恋如一

独俯观兮惟炉火阑珊
叹复吟兮怅爱之迁延
奋而驰兮欲入乎层巅
何得而隐兮同彼星团

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down thi-s book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid hi-s face amid a crowd of stars.

试以古风译叶芝《Down by the Salley Gardens》《柳园街上》

昔遇柳园街 佳人足如雪
谓我钟情易 若柳生枝叶
昔我愚复鲁 斯衷未足解

昔倚对春江 佳人腕似霜
谓我偷生易 若草起坡梁
昔我愚复鲁 今思泪满裳

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish, with her did not agree.

In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder she placed her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.
