天淨沙 秋 （宋）朱庭玉

 

庭前落尽梧桐，水边开彻芙蓉。

解与诗人意同。辞柯霜叶，飞来就我题红。

 

Autumn by Zhu Ting-yu (Soong Dynasty)

 

Parasol trees already leafless at forecourt,

Poolside, lotus blooms eke fade or distort.

A frosted maple leaf — though dismissed,

This bard’s mind it doth seem to consort,

Flying to court my brush, which gladdens to cavort...
