《江城子·密州出猎》是宋代文学家苏轼于密州知州任上所作的一首词。此词表达了强国抗敌的政治主张，抒写了渴望报效朝廷的壮志豪情。首三句直出会猎题意，次写围猎时的装束和盛况，然后转写自己的感想：决心亲自射杀猛虎，答谢全城军民的深情厚意。下片叙述猎后的开怀畅饮，并以魏尚自比，希望能够承担卫国守边的重任。

《江城子·密州出猎》 苏轼

老夫聊发少年狂，
左牵黄，右擎苍。
锦帽貂裘，千骑卷平冈。
为报倾城随太守，
亲射虎，看孙郎。

酒酣胸胆尚开张，
鬓微霜，又何妨。
持节云中，
何日遣冯唐？
会挽雕弓如满月，
西北望，射天狼。

A Riverside Town
Su Shi

Rejuvenated, I my fiery zeal display;
Of left hand leash, a yellow hound,
On right hand wrist, a falcon grey.
A thousand silk-capped, sable-coated horsemen sweep
Across the rising ground
And hillocks steep.
Townspeople pour out of the city gate
To watch the tiger-hunting magistrate.

Heart gladdened with strong wine, who cares
About a few new-frosted hairs?
When will the court imperial send
An envoy to recall the exile? Then I'll bend
My bow like a full moon, and aiming northwest, I
Will shoot down the fierce Wolf from the sky.
