释·正碞·《点绛唇·湖上》英译

来往烟波，

此生自号西湖长。

轻风小桨，

荡除芦花港。

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 

得意高歌，

夜静声偏朗。

无人赏，

自家拍掌。

唱得千山响。

To “Rouge Lips”

–On the Lake

Zhengyan

I come and go amidst the mists and waves;

In this life I call myself “Master of the West Lake”.

With a light wind and a small oar

I paddle out from the rushy creek.

In high spirit I raise my song,

And in the quiet of the night my voice is wondrous clear.

But there is no one to enjoy it,

So I myself applaud,

As the song echoes from a thousand hills.
