醉在秋夜

醉在秋夜

                          （外一首）

 

 

 

 

没有风

 

 

看不见海浪澎湃

 

 

没有雨

 

 

听不见天边闷雷

 

 

夜空如洗

 

 

任漫漫诗兴

 

 

飘逸在九霄外

 

 

皎洁的月光

 

 

洒在港湾背后

 

 

沉睡的山寨

 

 

滴答的钟摆声

 

 

绕过纱幔

 

 

消失在窗外的林海

 

 

银海远处

 

 

荧荧渔火

 

 

在烟波中徘徊；

 

 

听不见悠扬的渔歌

 

 

但美妙的乐韵

 

 

似已缭绕在脑海

 

 

月有圆缺时

 

 

昙花不常开

 

 

难得此刻美景

 

 

奇彩这方来

 

 

没有美酒

 

 

唯有月华似水

 

 

乡茶一杯

 

 

没有多情的歌伴

 

 

却醉在今宵

 

 

醉在秋夜

 

 

醉在心怀

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

忆红叶           初识你     在去年     春天；     温莎堡的枫香林     红叶     烂漫一片。     蝶花相聚     情系千丝万缕     多少甜蜜的话儿     流注心田           离开你     在去年     秋天；     海德公园里     落叶     垂姿翩跹。     匆匆话别     未曾留你在怀抱     你的眼神     已在心灵深处     留下四季的思念

 

 

 

Feeling intoxicated in An Autumn Night

 

 

 

 

 

                                        (with an attachment)

 

 

           

 

 

 

 

 

No wind

 

 

No surging waves in sight

 

 

No rain

 

 

No thundering heard above the sky

 

 

What a clear world that is, tonight

 

 

Oh, I feel so excited

 

 

To let go my thoughts, and let my poems flyà

 

 

Look, there the bright moonlight outside

 

 

Shining down the harbour, and

 

 

the peaceful little village, by the hillside

 

 

Tick-tack, tick-tackà I can almost feel

 

 

the sound slipping through the curtain

 

 

disappearing into the forests, into the night

 

 

Further afield in the moonlighted sea

 

 

I see fishing boats

 

 

moving quietly, in mists

 

 

Though I hear not melodious singing

 

 

the beautiful rhyme is there somewhere, as if

 

 

it’s already been lingering, at this very time

 

 

The Moon may be full or crescent

 

 

Flowers may wither away

 

 

This spectacular scenery, like magic

 

 

is here tonight to stay

 

 

Without wine

 

 

But the full moon shines, and there is tea

 

 

I feel content with this moment of life

 

 

Without a dancing partner, I still

 

 

feel intoxicated, and stunned

 

 

by the beauty of the autumn night

 

 

Fully content, here I am, tonightà

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Red Leaves           I met you, for the first time                                      I said goodbye to you     In spring                                                                  In autumn     Last year;                                                                Last year;     When Windsor’s maple trees                                   When in Hide Park     In full blossom                                                        The leaves     With red leaves.                                                      Were beginning to fall in grace.     Like a butterfly meeting the flower                        Bidding farewell in such a hurry     And like a thread of silk that has no end               I had no time to keep you, embraced     This was the beginning  f                                      Still, I caught your eyes asking     Of our love stories.                                               That’s why, yesterday’s still fresh                                                                                  And memories, are here to remain.
