新朝天子·咏喇叭（原文、新作与英译对照）--《书路投稿》

glen1111

鉴于当今世上文凭证书充斥市场，引发许多人制假作假，给用人制度带来危害的现象，作新朝天子·咏喇叭以谏之。

新朝天子·咏喇叭

证书，文凭，纸片小，功效大。人来人往乱如麻，全仗你抬声价。有证工作愁，无证考试怕，哪里去辨甚么真共假? 眼见得忙坏了官员，愁死了百姓，直落得假证漫天撒！

New Worship to King and Chant of Horn

Cerfifates, diplomas, though small, effective they are. Mass come, many go, all depend on them so far. Cerficated worry job, others fear test, who care if real they are. Officials busy as bees, commoners mourn in face, pseudos to us say hi.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
注：
mass 这里指的是many people,词意本来还有大堆货物的意思。
cerficated 应为the cerficated, 指的是those being given cerficates. 相当于the rich, the poor的用法；
pseudo 假的,暗指假证满天飞的现象。


附：王磐原文

朝天子·咏喇叭

喇叭，唢呐，曲儿小腔儿大。官船来往乱如麻，全仗你抬声价。军听了军愁，民听了民怕，哪里去辨甚么真共假? 眼见的吹翻了这家，吹伤了那家，只吹的水尽鹅飞罢！
