【英文翻譯】
It was on the sixteenth of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, in the autumn of the year of Renxu, that my friends and I went boating along the foot of the Red Cliff. A light breeze was blowing gently without ruffling the calm water. Wine cup in hand, I toasted my companions and recited the first verse of"The Moon Rises"from The Book of Songs. Presently the moon rose above the eastern mountain, where it hung between the Dipper and the Cowherd, whilst the river, in a white mist, merged with the moonlit sky. I let the boat drift freely as it continued its motion across the vast expanse of the river. How mightly this was! I felt like one windblown over infinite waves, not knowing where to land. And how light-hearted I was! I was beyond wordly cares, and, like a fairy, was taking flight to the sky.
