Mount Heaven’s Gate Viewed from Afar

望天门山
Mount Heaven’s Gate 
  Viewed from Afar
作者：李　白
翻译：许渊冲
青海长云暗雪山，
Clouds on frontier have darkened mountains clad in snow;
孤城遥望玉门关。
The town with Gate of Jade stands far away, forlorn.
黄沙百战穿金甲，
We will not leave the desert till we beat the foe;
不破楼兰终不还。
Although in war our golden armour be outworn.
（摘自《许渊冲译唐诗三百首》）
