林则徐贬谪新疆
蔡凌云
茫茫瀚海路途遥，
贬谪边疆志未消。
且把寸心量寸土，
此功何止惠当朝。

Zexu Lin’s Westward ExileTr. LYU Wenpeng
A long, long way the vast waste saw him go;
Exiled to frontier, but his will held true.
He weighed each inch of land with heart and mind;
Beyond his own age, his deeds bless mankind.
舒恩江 译
Lin Zexu's Exile to Xinjiang
By CAI Lingyun
Tr. SHU Enjiang
Across vast sands the distant road extends,
Exiled afar, his noble will ne'er bends.
With loyal heart he metes each inch of land;
His merit serves far more than one reign's span.
Note:
1.Lin Zexu (1785–1850) was a distinguished statesman and national hero of the Qing Dynasty. Famous for seizing and burning opium at Humen in 1839, he was exiled to Ili, Xinjiang after the First Opium War. Even in adversity, he reclaimed wasteland, built irrigation works and consolidated frontier defense. His achievements benefited posterity, not only his own time.
2."metes": An archaic verb meaning "measures and apportions," echoing the original "量" (liáng) — to survey and allocate land.
