罗与之·《看叶》英译

红紫飘零草不芳，始宜携杖向池塘。

看花应不如看叶，绿影扶疏意味长。

Watching Leaves

Luo Yuzhi

Flowers are faded or falling, fragrance of grasses all gone;

Cane in hand, I feel inclined to turn to the pond.

I should think leaves are more enjoyable than flowers;

With their greenish shadows they have overtones flowers might want.
