shīrén: shěn quán qī Shen Quanqi
古意呈补阙乔知之
lú jiā shàofù yù jīn táng, hǎi yàn shuāng qī dài mào liáng。
jiǔ yuè hán diàn cuī mù yè, shí nián zhēng shù yì liáo yáng。
bái láng hé běi yīn shū duàn, dān fèng chéng nán qiū yè cháng。
shuí wéi hán chóu dú bù jiàn, gèng jiào míng yuè zhào liú huáng!
A girl of the Lu clan who lives in Golden-Wood Hall,
Where swallows perch in pairs on beams of tortoiseshell,
Hears the washing-mallets' cold beat shake the leaves down.
...The Liaoyang expedition will be gone ten years,
And messages are lost in the White Wolf River.
...Here in the City of the Red Phoenix autumn nights are long,
Where one who is heart-sick to see beyond seeing,
Sees only moonlight on the yellow-silk wave of her loom. |
