许渊冲译诗经·风

细品了熟悉的几篇，其他的也草草地读了一遍。其中有些句子翻得还挺有诗经的味道的 Together we'll drink wine And live to ninety-nine. With zither by our side, In peace we shall abide.” 宜言饮酒， 与子偕老。 琴瑟在御， 莫不静好。 Gloomy wind and rain blend; The cocks crow without end. When I have seen my dear, How full I feel of cheer! 风雨如晦， 鸡鸣不已。 既见君子， 云胡不喜？ It's near dusk, lo! Why not home go? It is for you We're wet with dew. It's near dusk, lo! Why not home go? For you, O Sire, We toil in mire. 式微 My two sons take a boat; Downstream their shadows float. I miss them when they're out; My heart is tossed about. My two sons take a boat; Far, far away they float. I think of them so long. Would no one do them wrong! 二子乘舟， 泛泛其景。 愿言思子， 中心养养。 二子乘舟， 泛泛其逝。 愿言思子， 不瑕有害。 Coming back from the mead. She gives me a rare reed, Lovely not for it's rare: It's given by the fair. 自牧归荑， 洵美且异。 匪女之为美， 美人之贻。 The rat has teeth, you see? Man must have dignity. If he lacks dignity, For what but death waits he? 相鼠有齿， 人而无止。 人而无止， 不死何俟？ “Come with your cart,”I said, “To you I will be wed.” How fresh were mulberries With their fruit on the trees! Beware, O turtledove, Eat not the fruit of love! 以尔车来， 以我贿迁。 桑之未落， 其叶沃若。 于嗟鸠兮， 无食桑葚。 I'd live with him till old; My grief was not foretold. The endless stream has shores; My endless grief e'er pours. When we were girl and boy, We'd talk and laugh with joy. He pledged to me his troth. Could he forget his oath? He's forgot what he swore. Should I say any more? 及尔偕老， 老使我怨。 淇则有岸， 隰则有泮。 总角之宴， 言笑晏晏。 信誓旦旦， 不思其反。 反是不思， 亦已焉哉！ She throws a quince to me; I give her a green jade Not in return, you see, But to show acquaintance made. She throws a peach to me; I give her a white jade Not in return, you see, But to show friendship made. She throws a plum to me; I give her jasper fair Not in return, you see, But to show love fore'er. 投我以木瓜， 报之以琼琚。 匪报也， 永以为好也。 投我以木桃， 报之以琼瑶。 匪报也， 永以为好也。 投我以木李， 报之以琼玖。 匪报也， 永以为好也。 How can those who nor reap nor sow Have three hundred sheaves of corn in their place? How can those who nor hunt nor chase Have in their courtyard badgers of each race? Those lords are good Who do not need work for food! 不稼不穑， 胡取禾三百亿兮？ 不狩不猎， 胡瞻尔庭有县特兮？ 彼君子兮， 不素食兮！ The bright moon gleams; My dear love beams. Her face so fair, Can I not care? The bright moon turns; With love she burns. The fruits from mume-tree fall, One-third of them away. If you love me at all, Woo me a lucky day! The fruits from mume-tree fall, Two-thirds of them away. If you love me at all, Woo me this very day! The fruits from mume-tree fall, Now all of them away. If you love me at all, You need not woo but say. 摽有梅， 其实七兮。 求我庶士， 迨其吉兮！ 摽有梅， 其实三兮， 求我庶士， 迨其今兮！ 摽有梅， 顷筐塈之。 求我庶士， 迨其谓之！

翻译的基础，是建立在自己对诗歌的理解之上的，可能自古以来对诗经的解读众说纷纭，但是许渊冲能用自己的方式让诗经走向世界，真的挺不错的。
