（古詩英譯）途中感秋—唐 白居易

途中感秋—唐　白居易

 

节物行摇落，年颜坐变衰。

树初黄叶日，人欲白头时。

乡国程程远，亲朋处处辞。

唯残病与老，一步不相离。

 

Chill of Fall Felt upon the Journey by Bai Ju-yi

 

As season shifts, plants wither, wilt withal,

My visage wears more weary marks of age.

As leafage begins to yellow and fall,

My hair greys on such a tedious stage.

Place by place, I fare kin well, one and all,

Mile by mile, I trudge on as though to gauge.

Yet only age and ills upon me sprawl,  

Clinging as if to lock me in this cage.
