《鹊踏枝·叵耐灵鹊多谩语》是唐五代时期的一首民间词,收录于《敦煌曲子词》。此词写闺中少妇与灵鹊之间的小冲突,含蓄地表达了少妇空闺盼夫的思念之情。这一场小小的冲突,虽然发生于少妇和灵鹊之间,却完全具有人和人之间的性质、意义。上下片采用两种不同的叙事视角,上片以少妇的自述为主,下片以灵鹊的自述为主。全词率性活泼,富有生气,以物拟人手法的运用,显得不事雕饰,朴素自然,逼真入微,情趣横溢。
无名氏·《鹊踏枝》
叵耐灵鹊多谩语,
送喜何曾有凭据。
几度飞来活捉取,
锁上金笼休共语。
比拟好心来送喜,
谁知锁我在金笼里。
欲他征夫早归来,
腾身却放我向青云里。
Tune: "The Magpie on a Branch"
Anonymous
How can I bear to hear the chattering magpie
Announce the happy news on which I can't rely?
So thus I catch it alive when it flies to me again
And shut it in a cage where lonely 'twill remain.
-With good intent I brought her a happy message.
Who would expect she'd shut me in a golden cage?
I wish her husband would come back soon so that I
Might be set free and take my flight to the blue sky.
