1.醒呀！太阳驱散了群星，
暗夜从空中逃遁，
灿烂的金箭，
射中了苏丹的高瓴。
I
Wake! For the Sun, who scatter'd into flight
The Stars before him from the Field of Night,
Drives Night along with them from Heav'n, and strikes
The Sultán's Turret with a Shaft of Light.
[注释]稣丹（Sultán）：回回教徒之统治者。
2.朝昧的幻影破犹未曾，
茅店内好像有人呼声，
“寺院都已扫净了内堂，
托钵人为甚还在门外打盹？”
II
Before the phantom of False morning died,
Methought a Voice within the Tavern cried,
“When all the Temple is prepared within,
“Why nods the drowsy Worshipper outside? ”
3.时候正在鸡鸣，
人们在茅店之前叫应——
“开门罢！我们只得羁留片时，
一朝去后，怕是不再回程。”
Ⅲ
And, as the Cock crew, those who stood before
The Tavern shouted—“Open then the Door!
“You know how little while we have to stay,
“And, once departed, may return no more.”
