觀 滄 海
Gazing Out Across the Ocean
東臨碣石,一觀滄海.水何澹澹,山島竦峙.樹木叢生,百草豐茂.
秋風(fēng)蕭瑟,洪波涌起.日月之行,若出其中； 星漢燦爛,若出其里,
幸甚至哉,歌一詠志.
Come east of Jieshi Cliff
I gaze out across the ocean,
Its rolling waves
Studded with rocks and islets;
Dense the trees and bushes here,
Rank the undergrowth;
The autumn wind is soughing,
Huge billows are breaking.
Sun and moon take their course
As if risen from the sea;
The bright galaxy of stars
Seems sprung from the deep .
And so ,with joy in my heart,
I hum this song.
