Unit 4 Exploring poetry
Welcome to the unit & Reading (I)
Poetry is an expression of one’s will. What is kept in the heart is the will, but when expressed in words, it is poetry.
—— “Preface to The Book of Songs”
Poetry
诗者，志之所在也，在心为志，发言为诗。
—— 《毛诗序》
A Spring Morning
By Meng Haoran
This spring morning in bed I’m lying,
Not to awake till birds are crying.
After one night of wind and showers,
How many are the fallen flowers!
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
春眠不觉晓，处处闻啼鸟。
夜来风雨声，花落知多少。
Dreams
by Langston Hughes
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
梦想
兰斯顿 休斯
紧紧抓住梦想
梦想若是消亡
生命就象鸟儿折了翅膀
再也不能飞翔
紧紧抓住梦想，
梦想若是消丧
生命就象贫瘠的荒野，
雪覆冰封，万物不再生长

Sweet and low, sweet and low,
Wind of the western sea,
Low, low, breathe and blow,
Wind of the western sea!
Over the rolling waters go,
Come from the dying moon, and blow,
Blow him again to me;
While my little one, while my pretty one, sleeps.
