月下独酌


李白

花间一壶酒， 独酌无相亲；


举杯邀明月， 对影成三人。


月既不解饮， 影徒随我身；


暂伴月将影， 行乐须及春。


我歌月徘徊， 我舞影零乱；


醒时同交欢， 醉后各分散。


永结无情游， 相期邈云汉。

DRINKING ALONE WITH THE MOON


Li Bai

(Ying Sun译)

From a wine pot amidst the flowers,


I drink alone without partners.


To invite the moon I raise my cup.


We're three, as my shadow shows up.


Alas, the moon doesn't drink.


My shadow follows but doesn't think.


Still for now I have these friends,


To cheer me up until the spring ends.


I sing; the moon wanders.


I dance; the shadow scatters.


Awake, together we have fun.


Drunk, separately we're gone.


Let's be boon companions forever,


Pledging, in heaven, we'll be together.
