木兰之枻沙棠舟,玉箫金管坐两头。
美酒樽中置千斛,载妓随波任去留。
仙人有待乘黄鹤,海客无心随白鸥。
屈平辞赋悬日月,楚王台榭空山丘。
兴酣落笔摇五岳,诗成笑傲凌沧洲。
功名富贵若长在,汉水亦应西北流。
In a ship of spice-wood with unsinkable oars,
Musicians at both ends,we drift along the shores.
We have sweet wine with singing girls to drink our fill,
And so the waves may carry us where'er they will.
Immortals could not fly without their yellow crane;
Unselfish men might follow white gulls to the main.
The verse of Qu Ping shines as bright as sun and moon,
While palaces of Chu vanish like dreams at noon.
Seeing my pen in verve,even the mountains shake;
Hearing my laughter proud,the seaside hermits wake.
If worldly fame and wealth were things to last forever,
Then northwestward would turn the eastward-flowing river.
Qu Yuan(340-270 B.C.)was a loyal minister and great poet in the state of Chu.
