定風波·三月七日英譯

三月七日，沙湖道中遇雨。雨具先去，同行皆狼狽，余獨不覺，已而遂晴，故作此。

莫聽穿林打葉聲，何妨吟嘯且徐行。竹杖芒鞋輕勝馬，誰怕？一蓑煙雨任平生。
料峭春風吹酒醒，微冷，山頭斜照卻相迎。回首向來蕭瑟處，歸去，也無風雨也無晴。

Calming the WavesSu Shi

Listen not to the rain beating against the trees.Why don't you slowly walk and chant at ease?Better than a saddle I like sandals and cane.I'd fain,In a straw cloak, spend my life in mist and rain.

Drunken, I am sobered by the vernal wind shrillAnd 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 rain or shine, I'll have my own will.
