【作品简介】
《梦李白·其二》由杜甫创作,被选入《唐诗三百首》。这首诗描写作者梦中所见李白的形象,抒写对老友悲惨遭遇的同情。“故人来入梦,明我长相忆”。“水深波浪阔,无使蛟龙得”。“三夜频梦君,情亲见君意。”这些佳句,体现了两人形离神合,肝胆相照,互劝互勉,至情交往的友谊。诗的语言,温柔敦厚,句句发自肺腑,字字恻恻动人,读来叫人心碎!
“三吏”、“三别”是杜甫现实主义诗歌的杰作。它真实地描写了特定环境下的县吏、关吏、老妇、老翁、新娘、征夫等人的思想、感情、行动、语言,生动地反映了那个时期的社会现实和广大劳动人民深重的灾难和痛苦,展示给人们一幕幕凄惨的人生悲剧。在这些人生苦难的描述中,一方面,诗人对饱受苦难的人民寄予深深的同情,对官吏给于人民的奴役和迫害深恶痛绝;另一方面,他又拥护王朝的平乱战争,希望人民忍受苦难,与王朝合作平定叛乱。这种复杂、矛盾的思想是符合诗人忧国忧民的思想面貌的。
成都西郊浣花溪畔的杜甫草堂,是杜甫到成都后的住所。
杜甫一生创作了许多不朽的诗篇,流传至今一千五百余首。
唐大历四年(769年),杜甫由湖北入湘,登岳阳楼,游洞庭湖,溯湘江而上,至耒阳,次年四月病故。据《旧唐书.杜甫传》记载, 杜甫在耒阳游岳庙,“大水遽至,涉旬不得食,县令馈送牛肉白酒,甫饮过多,一夕而卒”,葬于杜甫墓。

梦李白(之二)
杜甫
浮云终日行, 游子久不至。
三夜频梦君, 情亲见君意。
告归常局促, 苦道来不易。
江湖多风波, 舟楫恐失坠。
出门搔白首, 若负平生志。
冠盖满京华, 斯人独憔悴。
孰云网恢恢, 将老身反累。
千秋万岁名, 寂寞身后事。
SEEING Li Bai IN A DREAM( II )
Du Fu
This cloud, that has drifted all day through the sky,
May, like a wanderer, never come back….
Three nights now I have dreamed of you --
As tender, intimate and real as though I were awake.
And then, abruptly rising to go,
You told me the perils of adventure
By river and lake-the storms, the wrecks,
The fears that are borne on a little boat;
And, here in my doorway, you rubbed your white head
As if there were something puzzling you.
…Our capital teems with officious people,
While you are alone and helpless and poor.
Who says that the heavenly net never fails?
It has brought you ill fortune, old as you are.
…A thousand years' fame, ten thousand years' fame-
What good, when you are dead and gone.
