送杜少府之任蜀州 [王勃]

【作品简介】

　　《送杜少府之任蜀州》由王勃创作，被选入《唐诗三百首》。这是一首著名的送别诗。诗意慰勉勿在离别之时悲哀。起句严整对仗，三、四句以散调承之，以实转虚，文情跌宕。第三联“海内存知己，天涯若比邻”，奇峰突起，高度地概括了“友情深厚，江山难阻”的情景，伟词自铸，传之千古，有口皆碑。尾联点出“送”的主题。全诗开合顿挫，气脉流通，意境旷达。一洗古送别诗中的悲凉凄怆之气，音调爽朗，清新高远，独树碑石。

送杜少府之任蜀州

王勃

城阙辅三秦， 风烟望五津。

与君离别意， 同是宦游人。

海内存知己， 天涯若比邻。

无为在歧路， 儿女共沾巾。

FAREWELL TO VICE-PREFECT DU SETTING OUT FOR HIS OFFICIAL POST IN SHU

Wang Bo

By this wall that surrounds the three Qin districts,

Through a mist that makes five rivers one,

We bid each other a sad farewell,

We two officials going opposite ways....

And yet, while China holds our friendship,

And heaven remains our neighbourhood,

Why should you linger at the fork of the road,

Wiping your eyes like a heart-broken child?
