The translation of allusion is based on the translation of text to explore its connotation. It is not only the transformation of literal meaning but also an effective communication of cultural information. This paper takes Xu Yuanchong and He Zhongjian’s translation of Liu Yuxi’s ‘A Reply to Bai Juyi’s Poem at Our First Meeting in Yangzhou’ as an example to study their different understanding of the allusions in the same poem and their approaches to the translation of allusions in ancient Chinese poems.
