敬安·《重过杨家桥二首·其二》英译

照水朱颜半已凋，春风依旧柳千条。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

栖鸦数点斜阳里，不忍题诗过此桥。

Crossing the Yang-chia Bridge Once More

Ching An

The face reflected in the stream’s

lost half its youthful color.

Spring wind

is as it was before,

so too, the thousand willow boughs.

Crows perch to punctuate

the lines of slanting sunset.

It’s hard to write

as I pass this place once more.
