黄景仁·《癸巳除夕偶成》英译

千家笑语漏迟迟，忧患潜从物外知。

悄立市桥人不识，一星如月看多时。

Sentiments on the New Year’s Eve in the Year Gui-si (1773)

Huang Jingren

Laughter pours from a thousand homes, as the water clock drips and drips—

One learns grief and anxieties in secret, from matters beyond oneself.

Silent and alone, I stand on the market bridge unknown to anyone;

A single star bright as the moon, I watch for a long, long time.
