木兰花令
王观
铜驼陌上新正[1]后,
第一风流除是柳。
勾牵[2]春事不如梅,
断送离人强似酒。
东君有意偏就[3],
惯得腰肢真个瘦。
阿谁道你不思量,
因甚眉头长恁[4]皱。

注释:
[1]新正:新春正月。
[2]勾牵:招惹。
[3]就:宠爱,迁就。
[4]恁:那么。
Song of Magnolia Flower
Wang Guan
On the pathway after the spring day
The first to waft in breeze are willow trees,
Not so attractive to spring as mume blooms divine
But to those who part more heart-breaking than wine.
The Sun God in the East has for you a love tender;
He’s fond of your waist slender.
No lady could forget you now
When she unknits her leaf-like brow.

注释:
The willow tree is compared to a fair lady and its leaves to her eyebrows.\
