薛涛·《镜离台》英译

铸泻黄金镜始开，初生三五月徘徊。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

为遭无限尘蒙蔽，不得华堂上玉台。

A Mirror Separated from Its Stand

Xue Tao

The molten gold was poured,

    a mirror then appeared,

A full moon first rising

and hanging in the sky.

Because it suffered endless

    layers of dust and grime,

It cannot be set on the stand of jade

within the splendid hall.
