（古詩英譯）論詩三十首（十八）金 – 元好問

論詩三十首（十八）金 – 元好問

 

东野穷愁死不休，高天厚地一詩囚。

江山万古潮陽笔，合在元龙百尺楼。

 

A Quatrain by Yuan Hao-wen (Jin Dynasty)

 

In want and woe until death, Meng Jiao did converse,

‘Twixt heaven and earth — a prisoner to his verse.

All now gather in the Yuan Long’s mighty tower,

Han Yu’s brush like hills and rills of the universe.  

 

Tr. Ziyuzile
