顧太清·《江城子·落花》英譯

花開花落一年中，

惜殘紅，

怨東風。

惱煞紛紛，

如雪撲簾櫳。

坐對飛花花事了，

春又去，

太匆匆。

惜花有恨與誰同？

曉妝慵，

忒愁儂。

燕子來時，

紅雨已濛濛。

盡有春愁銜不去，

無端底，

是游蜂。

Jiang cheng zi:

Fallen Flowers

Gu Taiqing

Flowers bloom, flowers fall, all in the same year.

I pity the faded reds

And blame the east wind,

They vex me so, these fallen petals aplenty;

Like snow flurries pelting at the curtained window.

o sit watching whirling blossoms flower-gazing time is past.

Spring again is gone

Far too hastily!

With whom can I share my grief in pitying the flowers?

Too lazy for my morning make-up,

So overpowering is my sorrow.

When the swallows return,

A crimson shower falling east of my painted chamber.

Lying everywhere, the spring grief cannot be pecked away;

So utterly thoughtless

Are the wandering honeybees.

（Irving Y. Lo 譯）
