李弥逊·《菩萨蛮》英译

江城烽火连三月，

不堪对酒长亭别。

休作断肠声，

老来无泪倾。

风高帆影疾，

目送舟痕碧。

锦字几时来，

薰风无雁回。

Li Mixun

From month to month in riverside town fire was spread.

Can I bear to drink farewell at Pavilion long?

Do not sing your heart-breaking song!

While old, I have no tears to shed.

Your sail goes fast when wind is high;

Amid green waves it’s lost to my eye.

When will messengers bring me word?

In summer wind no message-bearing bird.
