薛涛·《池上双凫》英译

双栖绿池上，朝去暮飞还。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

更忆将雏日，同心莲叶间。

A Pair of Birds on a Lake

Xue Tao

A pair of birds come to rest

on a pond of aquamarine;

in the mornings they fly away,

and in the evenings return.

Reminiscent of when the hen

had fledglings in her care,

their hearts join in communion

in their lotus leaf lair.

（Bannie Chow, Thomas Cleary 译）
