桃花扇 心存善念2022-01-04 04:55:22
古轮台·走江边
《桃花扇》“沉江”一折
走江边，
满腔愤恨向谁言？
老泪风吹面，
孤城一片，
望救目穿。
使尽残兵血战，
跳出重围，
故国苦恋，
谁知歌罢剩空筵。
长江一线，
吴头楚尾路三千。
尽归别姓，
雨翻云变。
寒涛东卷，
万事付空烟。
精魂显，
《大招》声逐海天远。
《大招》：《楚辞》中的一篇。这句意为史可法为国捐躯，英魂永存。

Wandering by the riverside,
To whom could he his deepest grief confide?
The wind blew the tears
On his face;
From the forsaken city
No matter how he strained his eyes,
No help could he espy.
His love for the ancient dynasty
Was nought but
A cause of bitterness.
The song was ended,
The banquet hall empty;
A myriad miles of river
Stretched from the realm of Wu
Down to the hills of Chu—
All gone,
All taken!
The rain whirled,
The clouds turned,
The cold tide eastwards curled,
And all dissolved in mist.
His mighty spirit
Wafted from sea to sky!
