纳兰性德·《采桑子·彤霞久绝飞琼字》英译

彤霞久绝飞琼字，<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

人在谁边。

人在谁边，

今夜玉清眠不眠。

香销被冷残灯灭，

静数秋天。

静数秋天，

又误心期到下弦。

Picking Mulberries

Nalan Xingde

From red clouds has been cut a long-delayed figure of the nymph.

Where is she gone?

Where is she gone?

Query tonight whether she stops up or lies down?

Fragrance diminished, quilt chilled and last flicker of the lamp gone out.

The fall of leaf counted still,

The fall of leaf counted still,

My expectant soul lingers to the waning moon against my will.
