舒亶·《卜算子·分题得苔》英译

分题得苔

池台小雨干，

门巷香轮少。

谁把青钱衬落红？

满地无人扫。

何时斗草归，

几度寻花了。

留得佳人莲步痕，

宫样鞋儿小。

Song of Divination

The Moss

Shu Dan

The poolside bears no trace of rain;

Few fragrant cabs pass on the lane.

Who strews green coins to set off fallen red?

None would sweep clean the ground with moss overspread.

When did the flower-picking lasses

Come back after the game of grasses?

They’ve left their lotus-like footsteps to recall

Their palace-styled shoes so small.
