《雁门太守行》 李贺

黑云压城城欲摧，甲光向日金鳞开。
角声满天秋色里，塞上燕脂凝夜紫。
半卷红旗临易水，霜重鼓寒声不起。
报君黄金台上意，提携玉龙为君死。

Yan Men Governor1, a Lay
Li He

Black clouds loom heavy over the city,
And the city on the verge of caving in,
Armors gleam golden with open scales in the sun.
Battle horns fill the sky of an autumnal hue,
Frontier rouge freezes into a nocturnal purple.
Battle banners half-furled over the Yishui River,
Drums go mute from heavy frost and cold.
To return the favor on the Golden Stage,
I tote my Yulong sword to die for him.
