[汉诗英译]竹枝词二首（一）

[宁家珍]

Ancient folk songs II <I>
Liu Yuxi

The willow is green and river is quiet,
Listening My darling’s song is from riverside.
There's sunrise in the east and rain in the west ,
Saying it is not fine indeed it is fine.

宁家珍译（Ning Jiazhen ）

* The word "fine" is the same voice as "goodwill" in Chinese.

竹枝词二首（一）
刘禹锡

杨柳青青江水平，
闻郎江上唱歌声。
东边日出西边雨，
道是无晴却有晴。

[Lake]

道是无晴却有晴

最后一句最难译。双关语，谐音字能译吗？ A challenge, indeed.

Thank you , Mr.Lake . I know the meaning for "fine "in the poem . But it is too difficult for me to translate it .
See you later.
