最近，一段英文版《出師表》在網絡爆紅……
沒想到，這段堪稱經典的文言文用英文呈現，竟也是如此慷慨激昂、引人入勝……一起來聽↓↓↓
視頻中，配上氣勢恢宏的音樂和劇中的場景，再加上演員出色的臺詞功底和近乎完美的英文發音，使得這段《出師表》有著《權力的遊戲》般壯麗的史詩感……
一個好演員的厲害之處就在於，即便不懂英文的人，都能深受其感染。
最近，電視劇《大軍師司馬懿之虎嘯龍吟》正在熱播，這段英文的朗誦者正是劇中諸葛亮的扮演者王洛勇。
雖然之前有唐國強塑造的諸葛亮深入人心，但王洛勇版的諸葛亮還是圈了不少粉。他的完美英文也讓不少觀眾好奇：新版諸葛亮還能有這種操作？！
還真能。實際上，王洛勇90年代就登臺百老匯了。但他並非從一開始就擅長英語。
With almost no knowledge of English, but a desire to become first-rate actor, Luoyong Wang came to the U. S. in 1986 to study theater. He overcame insurmountable difficulties in his life and career, working at all sorts of menial jobs while attending school and improving his English.
1986年，幾乎不懂英語，但懷著成為一流演員夢想的王洛勇來到美國。他克服了生活和職業中難以克服的障礙，一面上課、學英語，一面做遍了所有卑微瑣碎的工作。
幾經嘗試，他終於圓了自己的百老匯夢。
1995年，他登上百老匯舞臺，出演了《西貢小姐》。並憑此獲得了美國福克斯演員獎最佳男演員獎，獲得了《紐約時報》的肯定。
Eight times he knocked on the door of Broadway and finally, with his "electric" acting as praised by The New York Times, he secured for himself the pivotal role of "the Engineer" in the Broadway musical "Miss Saigon."
他曾八次試圖敲開百老匯大門，他終於在百老匯音樂劇《西貢小姐》中出演了主角“工程師”，《紐約時報》稱讚他的表演“激動人心”。
經過百老匯的錘鍊，也難怪他的英語能夠說得那麼純正，那麼有舞臺感了。
除了演員的功底要好，《出師表》的英譯也對錶達效果非常關鍵。讓我們來欣賞這一版譯文：
《出師表》節選
臣亮言：先帝創業未半而中道崩殂，今天下三分，益州疲弊，此誠危急存亡之秋也。
Permit me to observe: the late emperor was taken from us before he could finish his life's work, the restoration of the Han. Today, the empire is still divided in three, and our very survival is threatened.
然侍衛之臣不懈於內，忠志之士忘身於外者，蓋追先帝之殊遇，欲報之於陛下也。
Yet still the officials at court and the soldiers throughout the realm remain loyal to you, your majesty. Because they remember the late emperor, all of them, and they wish to repay his kindness in service to you.
誠宜開張聖聽，以光先帝遺德，恢弘志士之氣，不宜妄自菲薄，引喻失義，以塞忠諫之路也。
This is the moment to extend your divine influence, to honor the memory of the late Emperor and strengthen the morale of your officers. It is not the time to listen to bad advice, or close your ears to the suggestions of loyal men.
……
親賢臣，遠小人，此先漢所以興隆也；親小人，遠賢臣，此後漢所以傾頹也。
The emperors of the Western Han chose their courtiers wisely, and their dynasty flourished. The emperors of the Eastern Han chose poorly, and they doomed the empire to ruin.
先帝在時，每與臣論此事，未嘗不嘆息痛恨於桓、靈也。
Whenever the late Emperor discussed this problem with me, he lamented the failings of Emperors Huan and Ling.
……
臣本布衣，躬耕於南陽，苟全性命於亂世，不求聞達於諸侯。
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.
先帝不以臣卑鄙，猥自枉屈，三顧臣於草廬之中，諮臣以當世之事，由是感激，遂許先帝以驅馳。
The late Emperor was not ashamed to visit my cottage and seek my advice. Grateful for his regard, I responded to his appeal and threw myself into his service.
……
先帝知臣謹慎，故臨崩寄臣以大事也。
The late Emperor always appreciated my caution and, in his final days, entrusted me with his cause.
受命以來，夙夜憂嘆，恐託付不效，以傷先帝之明，故五月渡瀘，深入不毛。
Since that moment, I have been tormented day and night by the fear that I might let him down. 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，當獎率三軍，北定中原，庶竭駑鈍，攘除奸兇，興復漢室，還於舊都。
Now the south has been subdued, and our forces are fully armed. 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.
此臣所以報先帝而忠陛下之職分也。
This is the way I mean to honor my debt to the late Emperor and fulfill my duty to you.
……
願陛下託臣以討賊興復之效，不效，則治臣之罪，以告先帝之靈。
My only desire is to be permitted to drive out the traitors and restore the Han. If I should let you down, punish my offense and report it to the spirit of the late Emperor.
……
陛下亦宜自謀，以諮諏善道，察納雅言。深追先帝遺詔，臣不勝受恩感激。今當遠離，臨表涕零，不知所言。
Your Majesty, consider your course of action carefully. Seek out good advice, and never forget the late words of the late Emperor. I depart now on a long expedition, and I will be forever grateful if you heed my advice. Blinded by my own tears, I know not what I write.

Indeed Lv Bu was the man among humans, as Red-Hare was the horse among horses.

Those unworthy ones cannot discuss worthy thing.
謀事在人，成事在天。不可強也！
Human proposes; God disposes. We cannot wrest events to our will.
天下之人，願食汝肉！
The inhabitants of this country would devour you!
皓首匹夫！蒼髯老賊！汝即日將歸於九泉之下，何面目見二十四帝乎！
You fool and rebel! Mark you, today is your last day; this day even you descend to the Nine Golden Springs. How will you stand before the two scores and four emperors of Latter Han that you will meet there?
鞠躬盡瘁，死而後已。
To achieve this end, I would use the last remnant of my strength and could die content.

To the river banks come the white-haired fisherman and woodsman,
Enough have they seen of spring wind and autumn moon.

Serve but as food for their talk and laughter.
