洪适·《扶桑》英译

展叶柔桑沃，装丛醉缬繁。

定应西域到，略不耐轻寒。

Hibiscus Rosa-sinensis

Hong Shi

Dressed in unfolded foliage the tree of Hibiscus Rosa-sinensis tender with luster,

Bursts forth into a profusion of florets with dazzling pattern bedecking the cluster.

She must be transplanted from Xiyu,

That’s why even a slight chill she fails to tolerate and endure.
