徐灿·《临江仙·闺情》英译

不识秋来镜里，<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

个中时见啼妆。

碧波清露殢红香。

莲心休结，

多半是空房。

低阁垂杨罢舞，

窥帘归燕成行。

梦魂曾到水云乡。

细风将雨，

一夜冷银塘。

Boudoir Feelings   

Xu Yan

I did not know autumn had entered the mirror;

How often it shows my tearful rouge!

Green ripples and clear dew have vexed the red fragrance;

The lotus hearts are shy to bear fruit

Over half are empty pods.

Bending low by the room, the hanging willows have stopped swaying;

Through the curtain, I see homing wild geese formed in line.

In dream my soul has traveled to the misty land.

Here, light breeze and rain

Chill the silvery pond through the night.
