朱淑真·《江城子·赏春》英译

斜风细雨作春寒。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

对尊前，忆前欢，

曾把梨花，寂寞泪阑干。

芳草断烟南浦路，

和别泪，看青山。

 

昨宵结得梦夤缘。

水云间，悄无言，

争奈醒来，愁恨又依然。

展转衾裯空懊恼，

天易见，见伊难。

Admiring Spring    

Zhu Shuzhen

             

Driving wind and fine rain make for a chill spring.

A wine cup before me,

I remember our past love.

Once, clutching pear flowers in hand,

I shed streams of tears in the gloomy stillness.

Fragrant grasses and patches of mist on the road to South Bank;

With tears of parting in my eyes,

I gaze at the azure hills.

Last night I dreamt that I followed him

Through waters and mists,

Silent, without a word.

When I woke I could not control

My sorrow, deep as before.

Tossing and turning in my quilt I am vexed to no end.

It’s simple enough to watch the sky,

Hard to catch a glimpse of him.
