浣溪沙 – （清）納蘭性德

 

A Verse by Nalan Xingde

 

谁念西风独自凉。

萧萧黄叶闭疏窗。

沉思往事立残阳。

 

Ah, who’d heed the lonely hissing west wind so chill?

Shrouding carved windows, autumn leaves shed with a shrill.

I ponder the past, in afterglow, standing still.

 

被酒莫惊春睡重，

赌书消得泼茶香。

当时只道是寻常。

 

O ne’er ashamed of deep spring sleep allured by wine,

Bets on verse, to win the first tea drink, Jack and Jill.

Which, taken for granted, now we cannot fulfill.
