酷暑煎熬不分古今山海，盛夏煩蒸是全人類共通的生命感知。唐代詩人落筆寫盡烈日焚野、長夜難眠、耕者辛勞、羈客愁煩，滾燙詩意跨越千年仍能觸動異邦讀者。推動中華古典詩詞文化出海，苦夏題材天然具備普世共情力，無需繁復文化鋪墊即可傳遞細膩心緒。本輯精選十六首專詠苦熱唐人詩作，聚焦酷暑百態，以貼合英詩韻律的譯筆，讓東方盛夏的燥熱與祈涼之思走向世界。
翻譯原則：恪守“信達雅”核心準則，嚴守原文文意不增刪、不臆造引申，杜絕額外鋪敘；堅持以詩譯詩，保留唐詩五言、七言句式節奏，譯文通篇押韻，兼顧文言含蓄雋永的審美特質，平衡英文詩歌流暢度與原作古典風骨。
因不少詩作涉及“三伏””大暑”農歷節氣和古典人名，在這里統一注釋如下：
Note：
三伏 Sanfu: the three ten-day periods of the hotseason.
大暑 Major Heat.
祝融 Zhu Rong, the Chinese god of fire.
任公子Master Ren, thelegendary angler.
陽侯 Yanghou, the water god.
1.《苦熱》（節選）唐?王維
赤日滿天地，火云成山岳。
草木盡焦卷，川澤皆竭涸。

愿隨任公子，欲釣吞舟鰲。
主旨：天地如烘爐，草木枯干，薄衫亦覺厚重，無處避熱。
Sufferingthe Heat（Excerpt）
ByWang Wei (Tang Dynasty)
Translatedby Wang Yongli
Blazingsun o’er heaven and earthspreads wide,
Fireclouds rise like mountains towering side by side.
Grassand trees curl dry, all streams and lakes run dry,
Thinsilk robes feel heavy, thin shade can’t supply.

Finelinen cloths I rinse again beneath.
Beyondthe sky’s vast bound, I long toflee,
WithMaster Ren to fish the giant turtle from the sea.
2.《苦熱行》唐?王轂
祝融南來鞭火龍，火旗焰焰燒天紅。

主旨：神話筆法寫烈日焚天，四海皆如熔爐，渴盼秋風解暑。
Balladof Torrid Heat
ByWang Gu (Tang Dynasty)
Translatedby Wang Yongli
Godof fire whips fiery dragons southward far,
Flamebanners redden heaven’s every scar.
Middaysun hangs fixed, no shift, no rest,
Allrealms stew bound in one vast heat cauldron pressed.
Greenpeaks fade dry, all clouds vanish from sight,
Seagod grieves lest waves lose all their might.
Ohwhen shall autumn’s golden wind arise,
Tosweep all scorching heat beneath the skies?
3.《熱?其一》唐?杜甫

Wherecool winds danced beneath the altar sky.

Suffering the Heat
By Qi Ji (Late Tang Monk Poet)
Translated by Wang Yongli
Clouds loom steep as peaks, hot sunbeams drown bamboo’s hum,

Hot mist dyes waterfalls red all days.
Only round fans my constant cooling friend,
Moving soft within painted screens to mend.
5.《雜曲歌辭·苦熱行》皎然（唐僧，中唐）
六月金數伏，茲辰日在庚。
炎曦曝肌膚，毒霧昏性情。

不知天地心，如何匠生成。
火德燒百卉，瑤草不及榮。
省客當此時，忽貽懷中瓊。
捧玩煩袂滌，嘯歌美風生。
遲君佐元氣，調使四序平。
中令霜不祓，火馀氣常貞。
江南詩騷客，休吟苦熱行。
主旨：六月中伏酷熱曝膚，火德焚百草，盼清涼滌煩。
Balladof Torrid Heat · Folk Song Verse
ByJiao Ran (Mid Tang Monk Poet)
Translatedby Wang Yongli
Sixthmonth holds mid-fu, sun blazes on Geng day,
Scorchingrays burn skin, foul fog clouds dismay.
CouldI sprout wings to soar through distant cloud,
Whydid heaven forge such fiery crowd?

Yourjade gift cools my sleeves and calms my care.

Mayseasons balance, fire’s rage disappear.
Southernbards, cease singing heat’s despair.

By Du Fu (Tang Dynasty)
Translated by Wang Yongli
Day seems to never end, fierce heatgnaws at my heart,
I crave wide winds to brush my robeapart.
Bright moon climbs high, thin lightthrough woods doth stray,

Small bugs take flight where moonlightclear doth glow,
All living things seek comfort as theygo.
Yet I think of soldiers guardingfrontier lands,
Year-round they toil, no coolness intheir hands.
8.《夏夜苦熱登西樓》唐?柳宗元

By Liu Zongyuan (Tang Dynasty)
Translated by Wang Yongli
Midnight heat rouses me, I mount thetower bare,
Mountains and marshes choke with hotthick air.
Stars glow bright, no dew survives thefire sun,
No wind stirs wild lands, quiet everyone.

Throw wide all doors, yet heat stillclings to me through.

Hard to find peace where burning heattakes place.

I lean on mat, my light scarf castaside,
I beg new autumn winds to calm mytide.

Wild rice and reed line my ink pond wherecalm descends.
Silk scarves all rolled aside throughsultry hours,
I wait for wind to stir my scrolls andbooks’ dried flowers.
