鹊桥仙
（二首其一）
刘辰翁
轻风澹月，
年年去路。
谁识小年[1]初度[2]。
桥边曾弄碧莲花，
悄不记、人间今古。
吹箫江上，
沾衣微露。
依约凌波曾步。
寒机何意待人归，
但寂历、小窗斜雨。
注释：
[1]小年：指农历十二月二十三日。
[2]初度：出自“皇览揆余初度兮”（屈原《离骚》）。后人以此为生日的代名词。
Immortals at the Magpie Bridge (I)
Liu Chenweng
The gentle breeze caresses the moon clear
On the way I used to go from year to year.
Who knows I’ve just passed my birthday?
Beside the bridge with lotus blooms once I did play,
Forgetting what day passed in vain.
I played the flute at dawn on the river,
My gown wet with dew would shiver.
I seemed to see fairy steps over all,
While my wife was waiting by window small,
Listening to the slanting rain.
鹊桥仙
（二首其二）
刘辰翁
天香吹下，
烟霏成路。
飒飒神光暗度。
桥边犹记泛槎[1]人，
看赤岸、苔痕如古。
长空皓月，
小风斜露。
寂寞江头独步。
人间何处得飘然，
归梦入、梨花春雨。
注释：
[1]槎：用竹木编成的筏子。
Immortals at the Magpie Bridge (II)
Liu Chenweng
Who blows celestial fragrance down
From misty Milky Way?
Who sheds divine light on my birthday?
I seem to see the Cowherd Star on the red shore,
Where moss grows as of yore.
But in the endless sky the moon is bright;
The dew is slight and the breeze light.
By riverside I stroll in lonely gown.
Where can I be carefree?
A dream of pear blossoms in tears haunts me.
注释：
The poet writes these two fantastic lyrics on his birthday.
