乌衣巷
朱雀桥边野草花
乌衣巷口夕阳斜
旧时王谢堂前燕
飞入寻常百姓家
Beside the Bridge of Birds rank grasses overgrow
O'er the Street of Mansions the setting sun hangs low
Swallows that skimmed by painted eaves in bygone days
Are dipping now among the humble homes' doorways
逐句注释
朱雀桥边野草花
“朱雀桥”是秦淮河上的一座桥，通往乌衣巷。“野草花”既写实景，也暗喻荒凉衰败。开篇以景起兴，渲染寂寥氛围。
"Zhuque Bridge" was a bridge on the Qinhuai River leading to the Black-Robe Lane. "Wild grass and flowers" depict actual scenery while hinting at desolation and decline. The line sets a mood of loneliness through natural imagery.
乌衣巷口夕阳斜
“乌衣巷”因东晋豪门王导、谢安家族居住于此而闻名。“夕阳斜”以夕阳西下象征昔日的繁华已逝。两景并置，形成强烈的今昔对比。
"Black-Robe Lane" was once home to the noble Wang and Xie families of Eastern Jin. "The setting sun hangs low" uses the sunset to symbolize the passing of past glory. The juxtaposition of the two scenes creates a stark contrast between past and present.
旧时王谢堂前燕
“王谢”指东晋的王导和谢安两大世家。“堂前燕”采用拟人手法，燕子仿佛见证过当年的鼎盛，如今却飞入普通人家。此句以燕为线索连接古今。
"Wang and Xie" refer to the two great aristocratic clans of Eastern Jin. "Swallows by painted eaves" personifies swallows as witnesses to past splendor, now flying into humble homes. The swallow serves as a thread connecting ancient and present times.
飞入寻常百姓家
“寻常百姓家”与“旧时王谢”形成强烈对比，暗示权势和财富终将化为尘土，唯有自然与时光永恒。全诗含蓄深沉，意在言外，体现咏史诗的典型手法。
"Humble homes" contrasts sharply with the former mansions of the Wang and Xie families, suggesting that power and wealth eventually turn to dust, while nature and time remain eternal. The poem is subtle and profound, embodying the typical technique of historical reflection poetry.
今日赏析
《乌衣巷》是刘禹锡《金陵五题》中的第二首，作于唐敬宗宝历二年（826年）至唐文宗大和二年（828年）之间。当时刘禹锡因参与“永贞革新”被贬，后重回洛阳途经金陵（今南京），凭吊古迹，有感于六朝古都昔盛今衰，遂作此诗。乌衣巷原是东晋豪门聚居地，至唐时已沦为普通民居，诗人借燕子意象抒发历史沧桑与人生感慨。
"The Black-Robe Lane" is the second of Liu Yuxi's "Five Poems on Jinling", written between 826 and 828 AD during the Tang Dynasty. After being demoted for participating in the Yongzhen Reform, Liu passed through Jinling (modern-day Nanjing) on his way back to Luoyang. Moved by the ruins of the ancient capital, he reflected on the rise and fall of the Six Dynasties. The Black-Robe Lane, once home to aristocratic clans of Eastern Jin, had become an ordinary neighborhood in Tang times. Using the image of swallows, the poet expresses his meditation on historical vicissitudes and the transience of human glory.
