小编导读:《送人游吴》是唐代诗人杜荀鹤的作品。此诗八句四十字,通过想象描绘了苏州的风物景致,叙事状物可谓是恰如其分。其中“古宫闲地少,水港小桥多”两句成为描写苏州城建筑特色的千古名句。

送人遊吴

杜荀鹤

君到姑苏见,人家尽枕河。

古宫闲地少,水巷小桥多。

夜市卖菱藕,春船载绮罗。

遥知未眠月,乡思在渔歌。

See a Friend Off to Wu

Tu Hsun-ho

I see you to Ku-su.

Homes there, sleeping by the stream.

Ancient palace, few abandoned spots.

And by the harbor, many little bridges.

In the night market, lotus, fruit and roots.

On the spring barges, satins and gauze.

Know, far off, the moon still watches.

Think of me there, in the fisherman’s song.

(J. P. Seaton 译)
