我家江水初发源，
宦游直送江入海。
闻道潮头一丈高，
天寒尚有沙痕在。
中泠 ② 南畔石盘陀 ③ ，
古来出没随涛波。
试登绝顶望乡国，
江南江北青山多。
羁愁畏晚寻归楫 ④ ，
山僧苦留看落日。
微风万顷靴文细，
断霞半空鱼尾赤。
①金山寺：在今江苏镇江西北的长江边的金山上。②中泠：泉名，在金山西。③石盘陀：形容石块巨大。④归楫：从金山回去的船。
My native town lies where the River takes its source,
As official I go downstream to the seaside.
'Tis said white-crested waves rise ten feet high at full tide,
On this cold day the sand bears traces of their force.
There stands a massive boulder south of Central
Fountain, Emerging or submerged as the tides fall or rise.
I climb atop to see where my native town lies,
But find by riverside green mountain on green
mountain. Home-sick, I will go back by boat lest I be late,
But the monk begs me to stay and view the setting sun.
The breeze ripples the water and fine webs are spun;
Rosy clouds in mid-air like fish-tails undulate.
是时江月初生魄 ① ，
二更月落天深黑。
江心似有炬火明，
飞焰照山栖乌惊。
怅然归卧心莫识，
非鬼非人竟何物。
江山如此不归山，
江神见怪警我顽。
我谢 ② 江神岂得已，
有田不归如江水 ③ ！
①初生魄：新月初生。②谢：告诉。③如江水：古人发誓的一种方式。
Then the moon on the river sheds her new-born light,
By second watch she sinks into the darkened skies.
From the heart of the river a torch seems to rise,
Its flames light up the mountains and the crows take flight.
Bewildered, I come back and go to bed, lost in thought:
It's not a work of man or ghost. Then what is it?
It must be the River God's warning for me to quit
And go to my home-town, which I can't set at nought.
Thanking the God, I say I'm reluctant to stay,
If I won't go home, like these waves I'll pass away!
本诗从寄宿漫游写到金山登顶，从断霞半空写到二更月落，从江火通亮写到怅然归卧，从江神见怪写到指水为誓，或实，或虚，或看，或想，从无生有，如图如画，真是神笔巧夺天工。
