早发白帝城

佚名（译）

At dawn I left the walled city of White King，

Towering among the many?coloured clouds;

And came down stream in a day

One thousand li to Jiangling.

The screams of monkeys on either bank

Had scarcely ceased echoing in my ear

When my skiff had left behind it

Ten thousand ranges of hills.

朝辞白帝彩云间，

千里江陵一日还。

两岸猿声啼不往，

轻舟已过万重山。

李白，字太白，号青莲居士，又号“谪仙人”，是唐代伟大的浪漫主义诗人，被后人誉为“诗仙”，与杜甫并稱为“李杜”。其人爽朗大方，爱饮酒作诗，喜交友。李白有《李太白集》传世，诗作中醉时写的居多，代表作有《望庐山瀑布》《行路难》《蜀道难》《将进酒》《越女词》《早发白帝城》等。
