小编导读:《乌衣巷》是唐代诗人刘禹锡的代表作之一。这是一首抚今吊古的诗篇是怀古组诗《金陵五题》中的第二首。此诗凭吊昔日东晋南京秦淮河上朱雀桥和南岸的乌衣巷的繁华鼎盛,而今野草丛生,荒凉残照,感慨沧海桑田,人生多变。


《乌衣巷》 刘禹锡

朱雀桥边野草花,乌衣巷口夕阳斜。
旧时王谢堂前燕,飞入寻常百姓家。

Wuyi or Swallows’ Lane
Liu Yuxi

Beside the Zhuque Bridge wild flowers thickly grow,
Along the Wuyi Lane the sun is setting low.
Where once the swallows knew the mansions of the great,
They now to humbler homes would fly to nest and mate.
