第18章 On the Border

Zhang Qiao

Though a bugle① breaks the crystal air of autumn,

Soldiers, in the look-out, watch at ease today.

The spring wind blowing across green graves

And the pale② sun setting beyond Liangzhou.

For now, on grey plains done with war,

The border is open to travel again;

And Tartars③ can no more choose than rivers,

They are running, all of them, toward the south.

① buglen. 军号,喇叭 vi. 吹喇叭,吹号

② paleadj. (颜色)淡的;苍白的 vi. 变苍白;变黯淡

③ Tartarn. 鞑靼人 adj. 鞑靼(人)的

书边事

张乔

调角断清秋,

征人倚戍楼。

春风对青冢,

白日落梁州。

大漠无兵阻,

穷边有客游。

蕃情似此水,

长愿向南流。
