《醉翁亭记》英译

欧阳修

环滁皆山也。

其西南诸峰，林壑尤美。

望之蔚然而深秀者，琅琊也。

山行六七里，渐闻水声潺潺，而泄出于两峰之间者，酿泉也。

峰回路转，有亭翼然临于泉上者，醉翁亭也。

作亭者谁？

山之僧曰智仙也。

名之者谁？

太守自谓也。

太守与客来饮于此，饮少辄醉，而年又最高，故自号曰“醉翁”也。

醉翁之意不在酒，在乎山水之间也。

山水之乐，得之心而寓之酒也。

若夫日出而林霏开，云归而岩穴暝，晦明变化者，山间之朝暮也。

野芳发而幽香，佳木秀而繁阴，风霜高洁，水落而石出者，山间之四时也。

朝而往，暮而归，四时之景不同，而乐亦无穷也。

至于负者歌于途，行者休于树，前者呼，后者应，伛偻提携，往来而不绝者，滁人游也。

临溪而渔，溪深而鱼肥；

酿泉为酒，泉香而酒冽；

山肴野蔌，杂然而前陈者，太守宴也。

宴酣之乐，非丝非竹，射者中，弈者胜，觥筹交错，坐起而喧哗者，众宾欢也。

苍然白发，颓然乎其中者，太守醉也。

已而夕阳在山，人影散乱，太守归而宾客从也。

树林阴翳，鸣声上下，游人去而禽鸟乐也。

然而禽鸟知山林之乐，而不知人之乐；

人知从太守游而乐，而不知太守之乐其乐也。

醉能同其乐，醒能述以文者，太守也。

太守谓谁？

庐陵欧阳修也。
