风流子

周邦彦
新绿小池塘。
风帘动、
碎影舞斜阳。
羡金屋去来,
旧时巢燕;
土花缭绕,
前度莓墙[1]。
绣阁里、
凤帏深几许,
听得理丝簧[2]。
欲说又休,
虑乖芳信,
未歌先噎,
愁近清觞[3]。
遥知新妆了,
开朱户、
应自待月西厢[4]。
最苦梦魂,
今宵不到伊行[5]。
问甚时说与,
佳音密耗,
寄将秦镜[6],
偷换韩香[7]。
天便教人,
霎时厮见何妨。

Song of Gallantry

Zhou Bangyan
The little pond is newly greened;
The breeze ruffles the window screened.
The broken shadows dance with slanting sunny rays.
I envy swallows flying to and fro
Under the eaves of golden hall,
And rampant flowers creeping high and low
Upon the age-old earthen wall.
I hear in curtained tower deep she plays
And vibrates zither strings.
She stops before she says anything,
She’d not betray her spring.
She sobs before she sings,
So sad as to decline
A cup of sweetest wine.
I know that after making up her face
She’d open crimson doors and pace
To view the moon from western bower.
It grieves me most tonight
That I can’t bring fresh shower for the thirsting flower.
When will she tell me with delight
The time for us to meet?
When may I send her mirror bright
And she in turn her incense sweet?
O Heaven! O what harms
If I stay a while in her arms!

注释:
This lyric describes the poet’s lovesickness for a married woman.
