我们都学过古代文学，古代文学是我们中华五千年的精神食粮文学代表。而我最喜欢的一篇古文文章就是诸葛亮的《出师表》，他的智慧和“鞠躬尽瘁，死而后已”远被后人传颂。诸葛亮的高风亮节，至今令人怀念，让人敬仰。我读《出师表》更加深切地体会到，唯心中装着国家和人民的人，历史才不会忘记他。中国古代文学翻译是翻译人中，最难翻译的一种文学作品，首先我们需全文熟读古文，并了解全文讲述大意。我们才能够准确翻译出古代文学韵味。现在我们就来用另外一种语言翻译出来，英语文学翻译赏析。
先帝创业未半而中道崩殂
the late emperor was taken from us before he could finish his life's work， the restoration of the Han.

Because they remember the late emperor， all of them， and they wish to repay his kindness in service to you.

亲小人，远贤臣，此后汉所以倾颓也。
The emperors of the Eastern Han chose poorly， and they doomed the empire to ruin.
先帝在时，每与臣论此事，未尝不叹息痛恨于桓、灵也。

臣本布衣，躬耕于南阳，苟全性命于乱世，不求闻达于诸侯。
I began as a common man， farming in my fields in Nanyang， doing what I could to survive in an age of chaos. I never had any interest in making a name for myself as a noble.

故五月渡泸，深入不毛。
That is why I crossed the Lu river at the height of summer， and entered the wastelands beyond.
今南方已定，兵甲已足。
Now the south has been subdued， and our forces are fully armed.
当奖率三军，北定中原，庶竭驽钝，攘除奸凶，兴复汉室，还于旧都。
I should lead our soldiers to conquer the northern heartland and attempt to remove the hateful traitors， restore the house of Han， and return it to the former capital.

This is the way I mean to honor my debt to the late Emperor and fulfill my duty to you.
愿陛下托臣以讨贼兴复之效。
My only desire is to be permitted to drive out the traitors and restore the Han.
不效，则治臣之罪，以告先帝之灵。
If I should let you down， punish my offense and report it to the spirit of the late Emperor.

Your Majesty， consider your course of action carefully. Seek out good advice， and never forget the last words of the late Emperor.
