Primavera/Spring
Allegro
Giunt’ è la Primavera e festosetti
La Salutan gl’ Augei con lieto canto,
E i fonti allo Spirar de’ Zeffiretti
Con dolce mormorio Scorrono intanto:
Vengon’ coprendo l’ aer di nero amanto
E Lampi, e tuoni ad annuntiarla eletti
Indi tacendo questi, gl’ Augelletti;
Tornan’ di nuovo al lor canoro incanto.
Largo
quindi sul fiorito ameno prato
Al caro mormorio di fronde e piante
Dorme ‘l Caprar col fido can’ à lato.
Allegro
Di pastoral Zampogna al suon festante
Danzan Ninfe e Pastor nel tetto amato
Di primavera all’ apparir brillante.
快板
立春的時節到了
鳥兒喜唱着歡迎她回臨的歌,
微風輕輕地撫摸着
那細語般流動的溪澗
跟着黑罩着上空
跟着黑罩着上空
作春的先驅是隆響着的雷暴
過後就靜悄悄的
過後就靜悄悄的
小鳥又重新歌唱
慢板
由此在花叢滿佈的绿茵上
於葉滿枝头细语下
牧羊童跟他忠诚的狗恬睡着
快板
随着農村節日風笛 的欢声
少女與牧童轻快的起步
随着農村節日風笛 的欢声
少女與牧童轻快的起步
舞蹈在明朗的春天中
《In Drear-Nighted December》by John Keats __ 江紹倫譯
In drear-nighted December
Too happy, happy trees … translated by SL Kong
好事近 (宋)朱敦儒（1081-1159）
漁父詞
搖首出紅塵
醒醉更無時節
活計綠蓑青笠
慣披霜沖雪
晚來風定釣
閑上下是新月
千裏水天一色
看孤鴻明滅
Tune: Happy Events Are Near Zhu Dun Ru (1081-1159) 江紹倫譯
Fisherman’s Song
I leave world affairs aside with a shake of head
Free to get drunk any time or choose to keep a clear head
Wearing a green-straw cloak I go to work as usual
And braving the chill of frost and snow is but habitual
Whence the wind lull my fishing line is idle
Up the sky and under water the crescent moon settles
The world a thousand li beams in the same silvery white
A lone swan appears and vanished in flight
菩薩蠻 (唐)韋莊 (836-910)
勸君今夜須沉醉
樽前莫話明朝事
珍重主人心
酒深情亦深
須愁春漏短
莫訴金杯滿
遇酒且呵呵
人生能幾何
Tune: Buddhist Dancer Wei Zhuang (836-910) 江紹倫譯
Please get drunk tonight to drown your sorrows
Wine jar in hand speak not of tomorrow
I am grateful to you for this your kind advice
Your hospitality and wine are accepted with delight
Worry you may that spring is short as water-clock drips dictate
Complain not of full cups but take them in haste
Rejoice when in laughters wine comes your way
Happiness appears but sparingly you may say
《To A Friend Who Sent Me Some Roses》by John Keats __ 江紹倫譯
As late I rambled in the happy fields,
What time the sky-lark shakes the tremulous dew
From his lush clover covert; – when anew
Adventurous knights take up their dinted shields:
I saw the sweetest flower wild nature yields,
A fresh-blown musk-rose; ’twas the first that threw
Its sweets upon the summer: graceful it grew
As is the wand that queen Titania wields.
And, as I feasted on its fragrancy,
I thought the garden-rose it far excell’d:
But when, O Wells! thy roses came to me
My sense with their deliciousness was spell’d:
Soft voices had they, that with tender plea
Whisper’d of peace, and truth, and friendliness unquell’d.
《給送玫瑰以我的朋友》 約翰‧濟慈
近日我走在歡快的田地上
正逢雲雀從葱翠的三葉草叢衝起
顫動翹肢撤落點點露珠
冒險騎士再高舉斑痕累累的鐵盾
我看見大自然供獻的最甜美的野花
剛剛綻放的麝香玫瑰
趕着在夏天吐出甜香
就像泰妮婭皇后揮動的仙杖
正當我飽享着它的芳馨的此時
我意識到它永遠勝過家園中的玫瑰
但是韋爾斯當你送來你的玫瑰
我的官感即時着迷
它們以柔美之音對我細訴
給我心田種下和平真理及不渝友誼
To the Moon by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)
Art thou pale for weariness
Of climbing heaven and gazing on the earth,
Wandering companionless
Among the stars that have a different birth, –
And ever changing, like a joyless eye
That finds no object worth its constancy?
問月 雪萊 江紹倫譯
你可是因憂心而面色蒼白
莫不是疲於夜夜登天
為了凝視大地
永遠孤身漂泊
在身份不同的眾星之中
盈虧循環不輟
像一隻欠缺歡樂的眼睛
找不着對像共同長久眷戀
己亥歲感事 (唐)曹松(828-903)
澤國江山入戰圖
生民何計樂樵蘇
憑君莫話封侯事
一将功成萬骨枯
The War Year Cao Song (828-903) 江紹倫譯
The lush countryside has been marked for battles
People here can no longer work and live without sorrow
Tell me not of glories of generals and kings
A victor’s success is built on bones ten thousands soldiers stained
《To the Ladies Who Saw Me Crown’d》by John Keats __ 江紹倫譯
What is there in the universal earth
More lovely than a wreath from the bay tree?
Haply a halo round the moon–a glee
Circling from three sweet pair of lips in mirth;
And haply you will say the dewy birth
Of morning roses–riplings tenderly
Spread by the halcyon’s breast upon the sea–
But these comparisons are nothing worth.
Then is there nothing in the world so fair?
The silvery tears of April?–Youth of May?
Or June that breathes out life for butterflies?
No–none of these can from my favorite bear
Away the palm; yet shall it ever pay
Due reverence to your most sovereign eyes.
《給見證我戴上桂冠的女士們》 約翰‧濟慈
在這萬有的大地上
有何東西可比用桂枝編成的冠冕可愛
是月亮週邊偶顯的光環
是三雙歡樂嘴唇漾着的甜笑
也許你會說
是晨早綻開的帶露玫瑰
或翠鳥在海上輕輕掀起的微浪
但是這些比擬都沒多大意義
實在世上沒有東西更為美麗
四月下降的銀雨或五月的青春
或者六月那促生蝴蝶的天氣
不這些都比不上我這勝利的棕橺
願它永遠在你們尊貴的慧眼裡
留着崇高的敬意
