杜荀鹤·《春宫怨》英译

早被婵娟误，欲归临镜慵。

承恩不在貌，教妾若为容？

风暖鸟声碎，日高花影重。

年年越溪女，相忆采芙蓉。

A Sign in the Spring Palace

Du Xunhe

Knowing beauty my misfortune,

I face my mirrow with a sigh.

To please a fastidious emperor,

How shall I array myself?....

Birds flock and sing when the wind is warm，

Flowers-shadows climb when the sun is high—

And year after year girls in the south

Are picking hibiscus, dreaming of love!
