（古詩詞英譯）鹧鸪天 – 嫩绿重重看得成（宋）范成大

鹧鸪天 – （宋）范成大

 

嫩绿重重看得成，

曲阑幽槛小红英。

酴醿架上蜂儿闹，

杨柳行间燕子轻。

春婉娩，客飘零，

残花浅酒片时清。

一杯且买明朝事，

送了斜阳月又生。

 

A Lyric by Fan Chen-da (Soong Dynasty)

 

Lo, tender leaves upon leaves — so rich and so green,

The balusters curve where dainty reds blush — so serene .

Around the climbing-rose trellis frolick the bees,

While swallows flit through weeping willows in between.

Late spring draws nigh — a lonely wanderer yet seen,

Wine sipped, afore fading blooms, I lean...

Alas, I’d buy one more cup to drown poor morrows —

Seeing off Helios, O, here returns Selene...
