鱼玄机·《江行》（其一）英译

大江横抱武昌斜，鹦鹉洲前户万家。

画舸春眠朝未足，梦为蝴蝶也寻花。

On the River

Yü Hsüan-ch

The Great River wraps an arm

angling around Wu-ch’ang

Parrot Island faces the gates

of ten thousand homes.

Spring sleep in a pleasure boat

unfulfilled at dawn—

In dreams a butterfly

still seeking blossoms.

（Jan W. Walls 译）

Traveling on the Yangzi

Yu Xuanji      

I                   

The great Yangzi curves and embraces Wuchang,

Ten thousand households stand before Parrot Island.

Spring sleep on a painted barge is interrupted by the dawn:

I dream that I am a butterfly still seeking flowers.

（Jennifer Carpenter 译）
