Hello and welcome to TalkCastTalk, Beyond Their Time.
你好，欢迎来到“超越时代”播客。
I am your host, Franklin.
我是你们的主持人富兰克林。
Have you ever stood before a mirror and felt a sudden, sharp pang at how quickly time slips through
你是否曾站在镜子前，为时间在指缝间悄然流逝而感到一阵突如其来的剧痛？
our fingers?
从指间溜走？
Or perhaps you have felt the heavy weight of unfulfilled potential, wondering if the world will ever
或者你可能感受过未能实现的潜力的沉重负担，想知道世界是否会
truly recognize your worth?
真正认可你的价值？
Well, if you have ever felt this way, you are in excellent company.
好吧，如果你曾有过这种感觉，你有着极好的陪伴。
Today, we are traveling back over 1 ,200 years to the golden age of China's Tang dynasty.
今天，我们将穿越回1200多年前中国唐朝的黄金朝代。
We are going to explore a piece of literature that is so raw, so energetic, and so profoundly moving
我们将去探索一篇如此质朴、充满活力且深刻打动人心的文学作品，
that it remains a cornerstone of cultural memory to this day.
时至今日，它依然是文化记忆的基石。
I am talking about Invitation to Wine or Jiang Jin -ju, written by the legendary poet immortal Li Bai.
我说的就是由传奇诗人“诗仙”李白所写的《将进酒》。
Li Bai is widely regarded as one of the greatest poets in Chinese history.
李白被广泛认为是中国历史上最伟大的诗人之一。
He was a romantic, a wanderer, a deoist, and, yes, a legendary drinker.
他是一个浪漫主义者、一个流浪者、一个道士，是的 ，还是一个传奇的饮者。
But to understand this poem, we have to look at the man behind the myth.
但要理解这首诗，我们必须了解神话背后这个人。
Picture this, around the year 752 AD, Li Bai was in his early 50s.
想象一下，在大约公元752年，李白五十岁出头。
Years earlier, he had been expelled from the imperial court in Chang 'an, his political dreams shattered.
几年前，他被驱逐出了长安的朝廷，政治梦想破灭。
He was wandering the country, feeling frustrated, yet stubbornly proud.
他在全国各地流浪，感到沮丧，却又顽固地骄傲着。
It was during a reunion with his close friends, Master Center and the deoist scholar Dancio, that Li
正是在与他的密友岑夫子和道士学者丹丘生重聚时，李
Bai poured all his existential dread, his defiant optimism, and his love for life into this
白将他所有的存在主义恐惧、叛逆的乐观主义以及对生活的热爱倾注到这首
magnificent poem.
宏伟的诗中。
What makes this poem so extraordinary is its scale.
这首诗之所以如此非凡，在于它的气势。
It begins with the roaring momentum of nature and the crushing reality of mortality, but quickly
它以自然咆哮的势头和残酷 的现实（死亡）开始，但很快
pivots into a wild celebration of self -worth and friendship.
转向对自我价值和友谊的狂野赞美。
As we listen, I want you to pay close attention to the sheer contrast between the vastness of the
当我们聆听时，我希望你们密切注意宇宙的浩瀚与人类生命的短暂之间的鲜明对比，
universe and the fleeting nature of human life, and how Li Bai uses the image of wine not just for
以及宇宙与人类生命那短暂的本质，以及李白如何不仅仅为了
indulgence, but as a medium to drown what he calls his eternal sorrow.
纵情享乐，而是把它作为一种媒介来浇灭他所谓的万古愁。
So, without further ado, let us immerse ourselves in the translation of Li Bai's masterpiece,
所以，废话不多说，让我们沉浸在李白杰作《将进酒》的翻译中吧。
Invitation to Wine.
将进酒。
Do you not see the yellow river's waters come from the sky, rushing to the ocean, never to return?
君不见黄河之水天上来，奔流到海不复回。
Do you not see, in the mirror of the high hall, the sorrow of white hair, black as silk at dawn,
君不见高堂明镜悲白发，朝如青丝
turn to snow by dusk?
暮成雪。
When life goes well, be fully glad, never let your golden cup stand empty before the moon.
人生得意须尽欢，莫使金樽空对月。
Heaven made me with talents that must be used, a thousand pieces of gold spent will all return.
天生我材必有用，千金散尽还复来。
Cook the sheep, slaughter the ox, let us make merry, we must drink three hundred cups in a single sitting.
烹羊宰牛且为乐，会须一饮三百杯。
Master Center, Dancio, bring in the wine, let the cups not stop.
岑夫子，丹丘生，将进酒，杯莫停。
Let me sing a song for you, please, bend your ears and listen.
与君歌一曲，请君为我倾耳听。
Bells and drums, fine food and jade, are not to be prized, I only wish to be forever drunk and never wake.
钟鼓馔玉不足贵，但愿长醉不愿醒。
Sages and scholars of old are all forgotten now, only the drinkers have left their names behind.
古来圣贤皆寂寞，惟有饮者留其名。
The prince of Chen in days of old feasted at Pingal, with ten thousand measures of wine, indulging
陈王昔时宴平乐，斗酒十千恣
in wild joy.
欢谑。
Why should our host say he is short of money?
主人何为言少钱，
Go straight and buy the wine to pour for you.
径须沽取对君酌。
My five -flower horse, my thousand gold fur coat, call the boy to take them out and exchange them for
五花马、千金裘，呼儿将出换美酒，
fine wine, to drown with you this eternal sorrow.
与尔同销万古愁。
Every time I read those final lines, I get goosebumps.
每次读到最后几行，我都会起鸡皮疙瘩。
The sheer bravado of offering to trade his most prized possessions, his five -flower horse and his
他竟然愿意用最珍贵的财产——他的五花马和千金裘——来换取美酒不断，借此浇灭万古愁，这种纯粹的豪迈，
thousand gold fur coat, just to keep the wine flowing and to drown in eternal sorrow.
千金裘，只为了让美酒不断，沉溺于永恒的悲伤中。
It is not just about drinking, is it?
这不仅仅是关于饮酒，对吧？
It is a passionate, defiant rebellion against the limits of time and the disappointments of society.
这是对时间限制和现实社会失望的一种充满激情的、叛逆的反抗。
You see, Li Bai mentions the prince of Chen, also known as Cao Ji, a brilliant prince from an
你看，李白提到了陈王，也被称为曹植，一个来自...的杰出王子
earlier dynasty who was also politically marginalized despite his genius.
早朝代中尽管才华横溢却在政治上遭到边缘化的人。
By bringing him up, Li Bai is connecting his own pain to a long lineage of brilliant minds who were
李白提起他，是将自己的痛苦与历代才华横溢的传承联系起来，
misunderstood by their times.
他们曾被各自的时代所误解。
Yet, instead of falling into despair, Li Bai chooses joy.
然而，李白并没有陷入绝望，而是选择快乐。
He chooses friendship.
他选择了友谊。
He chooses to believe that his talents will eventually be recognized, saying, Heaven made me with
他选择相信自己的才能终将得到认可，正如他所说，天生我材
talents that must be used.
必有才能得以施展。
I would love to know, which part of the poem resonated with you the most?
我很想知道，这首诗的哪个部分最引起你的共鸣？
Was it the grand opening with the yellow river coming from the sky, or the vulnerable moment of
是那黄河之水天上来的宏大开篇，还是那个感到脆弱的时刻
realizing one's hair has turned to snow, or perhaps that fierce proclamation of self -worth?
意识到头发已如雪般花白，亦或是那种对自我价值的强烈宣告？
