主人有酒歡今夕,請奏鳴琴廣陵客。
月照城頭烏半飛,霜淒萬木風入衣。
銅爐華燭燭增輝,初彈淥水後楚妃。
一聲已動物皆靜,四座無言星欲稀。
清淮奉使千余裏,敢告雲山從此始。
《琴歌》原文賞析
淥水、楚妃均系琴曲名。【簡析】:
這是一首聽琴的歌,寫了聽琴時被音樂所陶醉的感受,並由此而動了歸隱的念頭,覺得要去赴任是一種精神上的負擔。既入仕途,又向往在詩酒和音樂聲中怡然自得,表明了舊時代文人大都有的矛盾心情。
【評析】:
此詩是詩人奉命出使清淮時,在友人餞別宴會上聽琴後所作。詩以酒詠琴,以琴醉人;聞琴懷鄉,期望歸隱。首二句以飲酒陪起彈琴;三、四句寫未彈時的夜景:月明星稀,烏鵲半飛,冷風吹衣,萬木肅煞。五、六句寫初彈情景;銅爐香繞,華燭齊輝,初彈《淥水》,後彈《楚妃》。七、八句寫琴歌動人;一聲撥出,萬籟俱寂,星星隱去,四座無言。後兩句寫聽琴聲之後,忽起鄉思:客去清淮,離家萬裏,歸隱雲山,此夜之思。
全詩寫時,寫景,寫琴,寫人,步步深入,環環入扣,章法整齊,層次分明。描摹琴聲,重於反襯,使琴聲越發高妙、更加動人。
A LUTE SONG
Our host, providing abundant wine to make the night mellow,
Asks his guest from Yangzhou to play for us on the lute.
Toward the moon that whitens the city-wall, black crows are flying,
Frost is on ten thousand trees, and the wind blows through our clothes;
But a copper stove has added its light to that of flowery candles,
And the lute plays The Green Water, and then The Queen of Chu.
Once it has begun to play, there is no other sound:
A spell is on the banquet, while the stars grow thin....
But three hundred miles from here, in Huai, official duties await him,
And so it's farewell, and the road again, under cloudy mountains.
【韻譯】:
今夜主人有酒,我們暫且歡樂;
敬請彈琴高手,把廣陵曲輕彈。
城頭月明星稀,烏鵲紛紛飛散;
嚴霜寒侵樹木,冷風吹透外裝。
銅爐薰燃檀香,華燭閃爍光輝;
先彈一曲淥水,然後再奏楚妃。
一聲琴弦撥出,頓時萬籟俱寂。
星星為之隱去,四座沈默陶醉。
奉命出使清淮,離家千裏萬裏;
告歸四川雲山,是夜萌生此意。lookup.tw提供
