小序The Poet’s Preface

登臨含鄱口觀五老峰上日出，探禹跡，謁周匡飛仙之所，訪太白樂天東坡之遺蹤，沿五老峰三疊泉瀑布步行下山。司馬遷《史記》云："余南登廬山，觀禹疏九江。" 今得步先人之塵，感慨既深，不覺豪情勃發，醉賦《廬山謠》。匡廬奇秀甲天下，信夫

At Hanpo Pass I stood, to watch the sunrise over the Five Elders Peaks—to trace the vestiges of Yu, to visit the place where Zhou Kuang soared to immortality, to seek the lingering steps of Li Bai, Bai Juyi, and Su Dongpo. Descending on foot along the waterfalls of the Five Elders and the Three-Tiered Spring, I recalled the Records of the Historian, where Sima Qian wrote: "I ascended Mount Lu in the south, and saw where Yu had channeled the Nine Rivers." Now treading where the ancients once trod, my heart swelled with awe and exultation—drunk with wonder, I composed this Ballad of Mount Lu. Indeed, Mount Lu—how miraculous, how supreme beneath the sky!

原詩The Poem

嗟爾匡廬秀，天下冠群峰！旭日透雲海，削出金芙蓉。粉黛山抹湖為鏡，朝霞入水澄碧空。峨峨峰嶺晦明幻，渺渺江湖一攬成。俄頃雲霧起，天地隱真容。迷離今古路，踽踽訪仙蹤。禹穴駐足何北望，指點九江俱向東。周匡避仕飛昇處，俗客高揖遠慕名。太白方疑來世外，東坡早悟道初成。豈有古來真名士，大林淚灑桃花風。風來蕩天清，引我下碧峰。天梯倚絕壁，步步嘆心驚。斷崖仰千尺，高鳥巢其中。蒼翠沾衣溼，寒浸五月濃。草木滿山知冷暖，映日杜鵑觀欲燃。五老肅然立，相送更無言。三疊殷勤轉，轟鳴落深潭。人生欲識廬山面，唯有快意居其間。登臨自古應長嘆，仙人乘風何時還。蕭蕭異代空祈盼，耿耿前途夢魂牽。回望遙辨來時路，山頂雲橫意闌干。

作者英譯The Poet’s Own Translation

Ah, Mount Lu—beauty foremost among all peaks under heaven.Sunrise breaks through the sea of cloudand carves a golden lotus from the sky.The mountains rouge themselves; the lake becomes their mirror.Dawn enters the water and clears a second blue.Great ridges shift between darkness and light;from here, rivers and lakes gather into one vast gaze.Then cloud and mist rise,hiding the true face of heaven and earth.Past and present lose their paths.Alone, I go in search of the immortals’ traces.At Yu’s Grotto I stop and look north:the Nine Rivers he guided all run east.Where Zhou Kuang fled office and rose beyond the world,this common traveler bows from afar.Li Bai thought the River of Stars had fallen from outside heaven;Dongpo had already begun to understand the Way.Where now are the true spirits of old?At Dalin, tears scatter through the peach-blossom wind.The wind comes and scours the sky clear,drawing me down from the blue-green peaks.A stair into heaven clings to the sheer wall;each step startles the heart.Above me, cliffs rise a thousand feet;high birds nest in their faces.Green damp soaks my clothes.May’s cold enters deep.Grass and trees across the mountain know warmth and cold;rhododendrons under the sun look ready to burn.The Five Elders stand in grave silence,seeing me off without a word.Sandie Spring turns and turns,thundering into the deep pool.To know Mount Lu’s true face,live inside it—heart unbound.Since ancient days, those who climb have sighed:when will the immortals ride the wind home?The ages pass with a bleak rustling; our waiting comes to nothing.The road ahead burns through dream and soul.I look back and barely make out the path I climbed.Clouds bar the summit; my thoughts cross and recross.

註釋Annotation

匡廬、周匡廬山及與其得名相關的匡俗傳說。
金芙蓉借李白寫五老峰的語句形容朝陽中的山峰。
太白、東坡李白與蘇軾；兩人的廬山詩在此成為對話的背景。
五老、三疊五老峰與三疊泉，均為廬山景觀。
闌干縱橫之意；此處寫交錯難平的心緒。

鑑賞Appreciation

雲海、峰巒與瀑布隨登臨次第展開，古人的身影又不時進入眼前山色。詩在高揚與迷離之間往復，越接近山水，也越感到歷史與自身的難以看清。最後回望來路，雲仍橫在山頂；行程有了歸處，心緒卻保持開放。

Clouds, peaks and waterfalls unfold along the walk, while remembered figures enter the present landscape. The poem moves between exhilaration and uncertainty: closeness to the mountain does not make either history or the self entirely clear. In the final backward glance, clouds still cross the summit. The journey has found a stopping place, but the thoughts it has stirred remain open.
