正文
现代汉语译文
正文
数声鶗鴂,又报芳菲歇。惜春更选残红折,雨轻风色暴,梅子青时节。永丰柳,无人尽日飞花雪。
现代汉语译文
几声鶗鴂啼叫,又报告春日芳华将尽。惜春的人更加挑拣残花来折取;细雨看似轻柔,风势却骤然猛烈,正是梅子青涩的时节。永丰坊的柳树整日无人观赏,柳絮像雪花般飘飞。
正文
莫把么弦拨,怨极弦能说。天不老,情难绝,心似双丝网,中有千千结。夜过也,东窗未白凝残月。
现代汉语译文
不要拨动那根细弦,怨情深到极处,弦声也能替人诉说。天不会老去,情意也难以断绝;心像两股丝线织成的网,里面缠着千千个结。夜已经过去,东窗还没有发白,只剩一弯残月凝在天边。
词句注释 · Notes
上片 · First stanza
“鶗鴂”是古诗词中常用来提示春残的鸟声意象。上片把惜春、风雨与梅子初青放在同一时令里;“永丰柳”又借无人赏看的柳絮写出繁华消歇后的冷落。
The call of the tihu bird traditionally signals late spring in poetry. This stanza places reluctance to lose spring beside sudden weather and newly green plums; the unadmired willows of Yongfeng extend the sense of decline after the season’s display.
下片 · Second stanza
下片由弦声引出难以言说的怨情,再用“心似双丝网”把纠结写成具体形状。“千千结”强调情思盘结不解;末句以彻夜未眠的残月收住全词。
Music gives voice to resentment that cannot be spoken. The image of a heart like a net of paired threads turns entanglement into something visible, while “a thousand knots” stresses its persistence. The last line closes on a moon still visible after a sleepless night.
