本句名言摘录于我国宋朝词人辛弃疾的著名词作《青玉案·元夕》英译本中的一句。此句展现了我国南宋时期民间庆祝元宵节的场景:明月当空,人们舞动着鱼形、龙形的彩灯,随着音乐载歌载舞。
Phoenix flutes make music,
The moonlight flashes,
Fish and dragon lanterns
whirl the whole night long.
— Xin Qiji
凤箫声动,玉壶光转,一夜鱼龙舞。
——辛弃疾
In the east wind tonight a thousand trees burst into bloom
And stars are blown down like rain;
The whole perfumed road is thronged
With fine carriages and horses bright with gems;
Phoenix flutes make music,
The moonlight flashes,
Fish and dragon lanterns whirl the whole night long.
Golden willow and butterfly trinkets in her hair;
Laughing and chatting she leaves a faint fragrance behind.
A thousand times I search for her in the crowd
And, suddenly turning my head,
Discover her where the lantern lights are dim.
东风夜放花千树。
更吹落、星如雨。
宝马雕车香满路。
凤箫声动,
玉壶光转,
一夜鱼龙舞。
蛾儿雪柳黄金缕。
笑语盈盈暗香去。
众里寻他千百度。
蓦然回首,
那人却在,
灯火阑珊处。
