夢李白（之一）
杜甫
 
死別已吞聲， 生別常惻惻。
江南瘴癘地， 逐客無消息。
故人入我夢， 明我長相憶。
君今在羅網(wǎng)， 何以有羽翼。
恐非平生魂， 路遠(yuǎn)不可測。
魂來?xiàng)髁智啵?魂返關(guān)塞黑。
落月滿屋梁， 猶疑照顏色。
水深波浪闊， 無使蛟龍得。
　
seeing li bai in a dream（ i  ）
du fu
 
there are sobs when death is the cause of parting;
but life has its partings again and again.
…from the poisonous damps of the southern river
you had sent me not one sign from your exile --
till you came to me last night in a dream,
because i am always thinking of you.
i wondered if it were really you,
venturing so long a journey.
you came to me through the green of a forest,
you disappeared by a shadowy fortress….
yet out of the midmost mesh of your snare,
how could you lift your wings and use them?
…i woke, and the low moon's glimmer on a rafter
seemed to be your face, still floating in the air.
…there were waters to cross, they were wild and tossing;
if you fell, there were dragons and rivermonsters.
