试英译七分儿大作【惜黄花慢】醒后人间春老

半窗初晓，细雨浅浅滢，新妆丛筱。

Early dawn says hello

through ajar window.

Light rain drops look so limpid.

Baby bamboo grove puts on new outfit.

几处鱼欢，水中荡漾莲心，滟滟湖波飘淼。
Fishes have funs here and there.

Ripples shake lotus leafs amid the pond.

Ethereal waves flare,

spreading far and beyond.

眼追蝶影舞离离，妩媚动，南枝初俏。

Dancing elegantly there are butterflies

that make my eyes together fly.

Glamorously trembling,

branches on the south side turn appealing.

野烟净，立遍旧园，青染红绕。

Mist has been cleared above the open land.
At all corners of the yard I stop and stand.

This is my beloved bygone garden.

It brings all colors of the season.

檀床缱绻飞香，云雨梦，醒后人间春老。

The rosewood bed emits fragrant scent.

It has witnessed our affection events.

I live in the dream, nights and days,

that is knitted by intimate plays.

Upon awakening from the past

I just find the world age fast.

一枕清凉，自君折柳相别，欲诉断肠难了。

As cold as stone now is the pillow

ever since you bent a branch of willow.

After this moment of your leave,

who can I talk to and relieve my grief?

诗成欲寄总无凭，酒空病，丝丝魂杳。

This poem is coming to an end.

But where and why should I have it sent?

Beside me are empty cups.

Liquor does not hold me up.

Floating away thread by thread,

my soul is as powerless as dead.

清月照，只愿客乡犹好。

Staring at the moon like clear water,

I merely wish you well wherever you wander.
