双语诗歌翻译|张祜-《赠内人》

《赠内人》是唐代诗人张祜的诗作。此诗咏宫人寂寞无聊的生活，写了她们对真正爱情的渴望和自身的凄清境况。前两句写宫人生活的孤寂苦闷；后两句通过写宫人枯坐“拔玉钗”“救飞蛾”两个形象化动作，表现了她的无聊和对弱小者的同情之心。全诗词采艳丽，语意含蓄，句句描绘宫人孤寂的心情，耐人寻味。

《赠内人》 张祜

禁门宫树月痕过，媚眼惟看宿鹭窠。
斜拔玉钗灯影畔，剔开红焰救飞蛾。

To a Lady in the Palace
Zhang Hu

'Cross trees in Court in palace gate, moon's moved to west;
The charming eyes glance at returning egrets' nest.
She leans her head to draw jade hairpin out near lamp
And moves red flame aside to save a moth with clamp.
