雙語 ● 數(shù)枝幽艷濕啼紅

TUNE: SONG OF GOLDEN DREAM

南柯子

The mountains darken, overshadowed by cloud;

山冥云陰重，

The cold weather thick with rain is not loud.

天寒雨意濃。

Red petals fall from a few pretty weeping trees.

數(shù)枝幽艷濕啼紅。

Grieve not for flowers blown off by the vernal breeze!

莫為惜花惆悵，

Plodding out in straw cloak from day to day,

對東風(fēng)。

Coming back by ditchside pathway,

蓑笠朝朝出，

The peasants lead the hardest life from spring to fall.

溝塍處處通。

What they need after all

人間辛苦是三農(nóng)。

Is but a bumper year

要得一犁水足，

So dear!

望年豐。
