《將進酒》

　　李白

　　君不見，

　　黃河之水天上來，

　　奔流到海不復回！

　　君不見，

　　高堂明鏡悲白發，

　　朝如青絲暮成雪！

　　人生得意須盡歡，

　　莫使金樽空對月。

　　天生我才必有用，

　　千金散盡還復來。

　　烹羊宰牛且為樂，

　　會須一飲三百杯。

　　岑夫子，

　　丹丘生，

　　將進酒，

　　杯莫停。

　　與君歌一曲，

　　請君為我傾耳聽。

　　鐘鼓饌玉不足貴，

　　但愿長醉不覺醒。

　　古來圣賢皆寂寞，

　　惟有飲者留其名。

　　陳王昔時宴平樂，

　　斗酒十千恣歡謔。

　　主人何為言少錢，

　　徑須沽取對君酌。

　　五花馬，

　　千金裘，

　　呼兒將出換美酒，

　　與爾同銷萬古愁。

　　Drink Wine

　　Don’t you espy

　　The Yellow River surge down from the sky;

　　Up to the sea it does tumble and flow。

　　Don’t you espy

　　To my white hair in the mirror I sigh,

　　That at dawn is black and at dusk turns snow.

　　Do enjoy life while in prime you run high;

　　Not to the moon just your empty cup ply。

　　So born by heaven we must be of use;

　　Spend all the money and more will come up.

　　Cook lamb, kill cattle just for joy profuse;

　　Do gulp down three hundred fills from your cup.

　　Cen, my teacher,

　　Dan Qiu, friend mine,

　　Don’t put down cups,

　　Do drink the wine.

　　I’ll sing you a song of cheer,

　　Please listen, prick up your ear.

　　Bells, drums and dainties are precious no more;

　　Drink ourselves drunk, ne’er sober, lying down.

　　Obscure are the sages and saints of yore,

　　Only drinkers can enjoy high renown.

　　At olden times Prince Chen held a great feast;

　　He drank barrels and barrels with no stall.

　　How can a host claim to have money least?

　　I shall buy more and drink up to you all.

　　Dapple equines,

　　Gold fur that shines.

　　Call our son to pawn them, buy wine, buy more,

　　With you I will drink off our age-long sore.
