朱熹·《题榴花》英译

五月榴花照眼明，枝间时见子初成。

可怜此地无车马，颠倒苍苔落绛英。

Pomegranate Flowers

Zhu Xi

Pomegranates in the fifth moon dazzle the sight;

Among the branches you perceive their seeds pearl-bright.
But this is a place where no cabs nor horses cross;

You see only reds fallen pell-mell on green moss.

（许渊冲、许明 译）

A Poem Inscribed on Pomegranate Blossoms

Zhu Xi

In the fifth lunar month pomegranate blossoms look like fire,

Now and then new pomegranates are seen to grow from branches.

It’s a great pity that no rich people visit this place,

The fallen red petals in disorder cover the moss.

（郭著章 译）
