中文原文﹕
折戟沈沙鐵未銷，
自將磨洗認前朝。
東風不與周郎便，
銅雀春深鎖二喬。
英文翻譯 / English Translation﹕
Buried deep in the sand are broken lances, have yet rust are their spearheads,
I wash them up and recognise they are from a historic period.
Had the easterlies not blown in General Zhou's favour,
Cao's Tower of Bronze Peacocks would have held hostage the nubile Qiao sisters.
