〈菊後〉

城破,
鳳巢墜地;
煙濃,
龍鬚指天。
從殘磚縫隙,
摘來一朵秋菊。

劍在腰間,
卻倍覺不安;
菊在手上,
亦未真滿足。
滿城盡帶黃金甲!
其實是一句氣話⋯⋯

花一摘下,
根即斷開。
金黃將會枯黃,
燦爛終成靡爛。
誰料菊花一朵,
竟壓肩頭萬鈞。

Golden Bloom

.

The city had fallen,
the phoenix-nest struck to earth;
the smoke rose heavy,
dragon-whiskers clawing at the sky.
From a crack between broken bricks,
he plucked a lone autumn chrysanthemum.

A sword at his waist
gave little comfort;
a flower in his palm
brought no real solace.
“A golden armor in every street!”—
perhaps it was merely a flare of anger…

The moment the flower was taken,
its root was severed.
Gold will soon wither to pale dust;
brilliance will at last decay to ruin.
Who would have thought that a single chrysanthemum
could weigh upon the shoulders like ten thousand jun?


菊の後

城は落ち、
鳳の巣は地に墜ち、
煙は濃く、
龍の鬚は天を指す。
碎けし煉瓦の裂け目より、
彼は一輪の秋菊を摘み上ぐ。

腰の剣は
心を安んずることなく、
掌の菊も
まことの充たりとはならず。
城中ことごとく黄金の甲冑——
思へば、気勢一句のみにてありけり。

花を摘むや、
根すでに断たれたり。
黄金はつひに枯れ黄ばみ、
燦爛もまた頽れなん。
菊の一輪が、
まさか肩に万鈞の重きを載すとは——。
