台城
江雨霏霏江草齐
六朝如梦鸟空啼
无情最是台城柳
依旧烟笼十里堤
River rain falls misty, riverside grass in rows;
Six dynasties like dreams, birds cry in vain crows;
Most heartless are the willows by the Terrace Wall;
They still veil the ten-mile levee in smoke and pall.
逐句注释
江雨霏霏江草齐
起笔写景，叠词“霏霏”形容细雨迷蒙，江草齐整，营造朦胧氛围；两个“江”字回环往复，引出金陵故地。
The poem opens with scenery; the reduplicated word 'feifei' depicts a fine drizzling rain, while the river grass grows in neat rows, creating a misty atmosphere; the repeated character 'river' gives a rippling, lingering effect.
六朝如梦鸟空啼
将六朝兴亡比作梦境，“空”字以鸟鸣的空洞反衬人世沧桑，寓含深沉的吊古伤今之情。
The rise and fall of the Six Dynasties is compared to a dream; the word 'vainly' uses the birdsong to contrast with the emptiness of historical change, conveying nostalgia for the past and lament for the present.
无情最是台城柳
运用拟人手法，说台城杨柳无情，不解朝代兴亡，依旧繁茂；“最是”二字加强讽刺与感慨。
Personification is used: the willows at the Terrace Wall are called heartless because they do not understand dynastic rise and fall and remain lush as ever; 'most of all' intensifies the irony and deepens the lament.
依旧烟笼十里堤
以景结情，迷离的烟柳依旧笼罩十里长堤，与首句呼应，突出自然永恒而王朝已逝的沧桑。
The poem ends with imagery: the hazy willow-smoke still veils the ten-mile levee, echoing the first line to emphasize nature's eternity against the disappearance of the Six Dynasties and, by implication, the crumbling Tang court.
今日赏析
此诗写于唐末黄巢之乱以后，韦庄避乱江南时凭吊六朝故都金陵（今南京）而作。台城为六朝皇宫所在地，诗人借六朝如梦的历史，暗喻唐王朝的衰颓，抒发对历史沧桑和时代动荡的深沉感慨。
Written after the Huang Chao rebellion in the late Tang dynasty, when Wei Zhuang was taking refuge in the Jiangnan region, this poem mourns the old capital of the Six Dynasties, Jinling (present-day Nanjing). The Terrace Wall was the seat of the Six Dynasties' imperial palaces. Through the dreamlike past of the Six Dynasties, the poet obliquely suggests the decline of the Tang dynasty and expresses a profound feeling of historical vicissitude and turbulent times.
