《天净沙·秋思》是元曲作家马致远创作的小令，是一首著名的散曲作品。此曲以多种景物并置，组合成一幅秋郊夕照图，让天涯游子骑一匹瘦马出现在一派凄凉的背景上，从中透出令人哀愁的情调，它抒发了一个飘零天涯的游子在秋天思念故乡、倦于漂泊的凄苦愁楚之情。

马致远 《天净沙·秋思》

枯藤老树昏鸦，
小桥流水人家，
古道西风瘦马。
夕阳西下，
断肠人在天涯。

To the Tune of Tianjingsha

Ma Zhiyuan

Withered vines hanging on old branches,
Returning crows croaking at dusk.
A few houses hidden past a narrow bridge,
And below the bridge a quiet creek running.
Down a worn path, in the west wind,
A lean horse comes plodding.
The sun dips down in the west,
And the lovesick traveler is still at the end of the world.
