鱼玄机·《赋得江边柳 》英译

翠色连荒岸，烟姿入远楼。

影铺秋水面，花落钓人头。

根老藏鱼窟，枝低系客舟。

萧萧风雨夜，惊梦复添愁。

Composed on the Theme “Willows by the Riverside”

Yü Hsüan-chi

Kingfisher green lines the deserted shore,

the misty vision stretches to a distant tower.

Their shadows overspread the autumn-clear water

and catkins fall on the angler’s head.

Old foots form hollows where fish hide;

limbs reach down to moor the traveler’s boat.

Soughing, soughing in the wind and rain of night

they startle dreams and compound the gloom.
