白居易·《村夜》英译

霜草苍苍虫切切，村南村北行人绝。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

独出门前望野田，月明荞麦花如雪。

A Village at Night

Bai Juyi

Frosted grasses are dark green, the chirping of insects timid;

Not a traveler is seen north or south of the village.

Alone I leave my house and look over the fields.

Snow-white are buckwheat flowers in the light of a bright moon.
