王维·《千塔主人》英译

逆旅逢佳节，

征帆未可前。

窗临汴河水，

门渡楚人船。

鸡犬散墟落，

桑榆荫远田。

所居人不见，

枕席生云烟。

Halfway Visit

It's festive day, but alas! I must stay

At the inn, and the sail has to wait on the way.

This window looks on the stream; at the gate

Are sailing boats for a distant state.

Dogs and chickens roam the lanes,

And elms and mulberries shade the plains.

But where's his abode, yet hidden from view?

Or can it be veiled in a rosy hue?
