《沁园春·长沙》（1925）

独立寒秋，湘江北去，橘子洲头。

看万山红遍，层林尽染；漫江碧透，百舸争流。

鹰击长空，鱼翔浅底，万类霜天竞自由。

怅寥廓，问苍茫大地，谁主沉浮？

携来百侣曾游，忆往昔峥嵘岁月稠。

恰同学少年，风华正茂；书生意气，挥斥方遒。

指点江山，激扬文字，粪土当年万户侯。

曾记否，到中流击水，浪遏飞舟？

译文：

CHANGSHA

Tune: “SPRING IN A PLEASURE GARDEN”

1925

In autumn cold alone stand I，

Of Orange Islet at the head，

Where River Xiang northward goes by.

I see hill on hill all in red，

And wood on wood in a deep dye，

The river green down to the bed，

In speed a hundred barges vie.

Far and wide eagles cleave the blue;

Up and down fish in shallows glide:

All creatures strive for freedom under frosty skies.

Lost in immensity，I wonder who，

Upon this boundless earth， decide

All beings’ fall and rise.

With many friends I oft came here.

How thick with salient days those bygone times appear!

When， students in the flower of our age，

Our spirit bright was at its height，

Full of the scholar’s noble rage，

We criticized with all our might.

Pointing to stream and hill，

Writing in blame or praise，

We treat’d like dirt all mighty lords of olden days.

Do you remember still，

Swimming mid-stream， we struck the waves to stay

That boats speeding their way?
