静夜思
床前明月光,疑是地上霜。
举头望明月,低头思故乡。
A Tranquil Night
Before my bed a pool of light.
Can it be hoarfrost on the ground?
Looking up, I find the moon bright;
Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned.
(许渊冲 译 2004)
Thoughts on a Tranquil Night
Before my bed a pool of light—
Can it be hoar-frost on the ground?
Looking up, I find the moon bright;
Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned.

Thoughts on a Tranquil Night
Before my bed a pool of light—
O can it be hoar-frost on the ground?
Looking up, I find the moon bright;
Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned.
Notes: Seeing a pool of moonlight, the poet is drowned in the pond of homesickness.
(许渊冲 译 2006)
