林徽因·《一首桃花》英译

桃花，

那一树的嫣红，

像是春说的一句话：

朵朵凝露的娇艳，

是一些

玲珑的字眼，

一瓣瓣的光致，

又是些

柔的匀的吐息；

含着笑，

在有意无意间

生姿的顾盼。

看，——

那一颤动在微风里

她又留下，谈谈的，

在三月的薄唇边，

一瞥，

一瞥多情的痕迹！

Peach Blossoms

Lin Huiyin

Peach blossoms,

A full tree of crimson red,

Sounded like a remark of spring:

Charming dewy flowers

Are some

Well-refined words,

Petals of delicate flower

Are also some

Rhythm of gentle breathing;

Smiling

Consciously or unconsciously

For an amorous glance.

Look

In the shivering in the breeze

She leaves gently

A glance,

A glance of affection

Along the thin lips of March!
