others without were so discomforted in the heavy rain. But I was an
exception. When the sky was clear again, I wrote the following
verse.
莫听穿林打叶声，何妨吟啸且徐行。
竹杖芒鞋轻胜马，谁怕？一蓑烟雨任平生。
Lashing sound on bamboo by the rain I don’t hear (A)
Singing and chanting along the way I walk here (A)
Cane and sandal are better than saddled horse, why fear? (A)
Palm-leave caped, I’ll spend all my windy and rainy year (A)
料峭春风吹酒醒，微冷，山头斜照却相迎。
回首向来萧瑟处，归去，也无风雨也无晴。
The chilly wind sobers me up from the wine (B)
Cold, and greeted by the sun on hill in decline (B)
Looking back at the bleak coming road of mine (B)
In return, I won’t be bothered by rain or sunshine (B)
无名氏佳译
Ding Feng Bo (rhyme pattern)
On the seventh of Lunar March, along the Shahu Pass sudden rains befell us, those with rain gear hurried ahead; while my colleagues all felt discomfiture, I did not. The sky has since cleared up, so I have written as follows.
Heed not to the tree-rustling and leaf-lashing windswept rain
Why not stroll along, whistle and sing under its reign
Lighter and better suited than horses are straw sandals and a bamboo cane
And fear not
A palm-leaf plaited cape shall misty weather in life sustain
A thorny spring breeze sobers up the spirit
Feeling a slight chill
The setting sun over the mountain offers greetings still
Looking back over the bleak passage survived
The return in time
Shall not be affected by windswept rain or shine
许渊冲、许明佳译
Calming the Waves
Listen not to the rain beating against the trees.
Why don’t you slowly walk and chant at ease?
Better than saddled horse I like sandals and cane.
O I would fain
Spend a straw-cloaked life in mist and rain.
Drunken, I’m sobered by vernal wind shrill
And rather chill.
In front I see the slanting sun atop the hill;
Turning my head, I see the dreary beaten track.
Let me go back!
Impervious to wind, rain or shine, I’ll have my will.
