秋晓

宋教仁

旅夜难成寐，起坐独彷徨；

 月落千山晓，鸡鸣万瓦霜。

  思家嫌梦短，苦病觉更长；

  徒有枕戈志，飘零只自伤。

Autumn Dawn

东山 译

I couldn't fall asleep at night on the journey,
Rising or sitting restless mooching lonely.
The moon setting, mountains lit up by dawning,
Under thousands of frosted roof-tiles cocks are crowing.

Dreaming of back at home, sweet but too short,
The night is too long for the sick and the miserable.
I do have the will to fight, but in vain,
Wandering not knowing where to all alone forlorn.
