素練風霜起, 蒼鷹畫作殊。
聳身思狡兔, 側目似愁胡。
絛镟光堪擿, 軒楹勢可呼。
何當擊凡鳥, 毛血灑平蕪。
《画鹰》 唐 • 杜甫
One could feel the biting wind and frost drawn on silk white;
Alert, the painted dark-blue falcon perks to take flight.
The cunning rabbit, the peregrine's posed to find;
Gazing sideways, like a thoughtful monkey's are its eyes.
Wearing a ring, radiant is the raptor on tether;
Perched on a pillar, it's almost alive to the touch.
When the preying bird's called to hunt the common feathers,
Blood and loose plumage on the plain, there shall be much!
from the 'National Georgraphic':
絛镟光堪擿, 軒楹勢可呼。
何當擊凡鳥, 毛血灑平蕪。
《画鹰》 唐 • 杜甫
素练风霜起, 苍鹰画作殊。
耸(㧐)身思狡兔, 侧目似愁胡。
绦镟光堪摘, 轩楹势可呼。
何当击凡鸟, 毛血洒平芜。

from the 'National Georgraphic':
- <These falcons (see pic) are formidable hunters that prey on other birds (and bats) in mid-flight. Peregrines hunt from above and, after sighting their prey, drop into a steep, swift dive that can top 200 miles an hour (320 kilometres per hour).> ...
Translator's Note:
As a bird-watcher, I'm v confident the young Du Fu was depicting vividly a majestic, ultra-swift Peregrine Falcon while projecting his own soaring aspirations onto the awe-inspiring powerful bird of prey.
To wit: "Peregrine n. Falco peregrinus, fam. Faconidae, a bird of prey used in falconry. It is dark with a whitish breast, and has long pointed wings and tail. It is very swift in flight." ...

诗意译文
洁白的画绢上腾起了一片风霜肃杀之气, 原来是画鹰矫健不凡仿佛挟风带霜而起。
耸起身子好像是在想攫取狡猾兔子似的, 苍鹰的眼睛侧目而视和猢狲的眼睛相似。
苍鹰神采飞扬可摘除系着私绳的铜环, 悬挂在杆楹上的画鹰气势灵动能呼出。
何时让这样卓然不凡的苍鹰展翅搏击, 将那些 “凡鸟” 的毛血洒落在原野上。>
... <画上题诗,是我国绘画艺术特有的一种民族风格。古代文人画家,为了阐发画意,寄托感慨,往往于作品完成以后,在画面
上题诗,收到了诗情画意相得益彰的效果。为画题诗自唐代始,但当时只是以诗赞画,真正把诗题在画上,是宋代以后的事。不过,唐代诗人的题画诗,对后世画上
题诗产生了极大影响。其中,杜甫 的题画诗数量之多与影响之大,在整个唐代没有超过他的人。
这首题画诗大概写于713年--741年(开元年间)的末期,是 杜甫 早期的作品。此时诗人正当年少,富于理想,也过着“快意”的生活,充满着青春活力,富有积极进取之心。诗人通过对画鹰的描绘,抒发了他那嫉恶如仇的激情和凌云的壮志。>...
