别梦依依到谢家,小廊回合曲阑斜。
现代汉语译文
离别之后,梦中依依不舍地来到谢家;那里回廊曲折环绕,弯弯的栏杆斜斜地延伸。
“别梦”指别后的梦境;“依依”写梦中留恋不去。“谢家”本指东晋谢氏等高门,诗词中常借指所思女子的居处(一说用谢娘、谢家小楼之典),不必坐实为姓谢的人家。“小廊回合”写回廊曲折相连,“曲阑斜”写栏杆随回廊斜斜排开。两句记梦中所见:人未到,先写出那处院落的模样。
正文
多情只有春庭月,犹为离人照落花。
现代汉语译文
最有情的只有春天庭院里的月亮;它仍旧为离别的人照着满地的落花。
“多情”写月似有意;“只有”二字含怨:人竟不如月。人已离散,庭院依旧,春月仍在,照着飘落的花——花落也暗示春光与欢会一同消逝。“离人”指离别的人,可兼指身已离去的对方与留在原地的人。(作者一作张佖,此从《唐诗三百首》及维基文库作张泌。)

梦里的谢家院落 · The Xie Courtyard in a Dream
前两句写梦:人已分别,思念却循着旧路回到她家,回廊与曲阑一一浮现。院落的细节比人物面容更清楚,说明这里早已刻进记忆。梦醒前后都绕着这方院落,可见他对这处地方有多熟、多念。
The opening couplet is a dream: they have parted, but longing retraces the old way back to her house, and the cloister and crooked railing appear detail by detail. The courtyard is clearer than any face because it has long been engraved in memory. Before and after waking his thoughts circle this one courtyard—proof of how well he knows it and how much he misses it.
怪月不如怪人 · Blame the Moon, Which Is Really Blaming People
后两句把月说成“多情”,又说“只有”月多情——言下之意,人却无情。月照着落花,本就是寻常夜景,诗人偏偏觉得这是月对他的照顾。愈说月有情,愈见人之无情,也愈见他自己不能忘情。
The closing couplet calls the moon full of feeling, then says it alone is—implying that people are not. The moon lighting fallen blossoms is an ordinary night scene, yet the poet takes it as the moon's care for him. The more he calls the moon feeling, the more he shows people's lack of it—and his own inability to forget.
