唐詩三百首英譯 李商隱：無題之三

七言律詩

李商隱

無題之三

相見時難別亦難， 東風無力百花殘。

春蠶到死絲方盡， 蠟炬成灰淚始乾。

曉鏡但愁雲鬢改， 夜吟應覺月光寒。

蓬萊此去無多路， 青鳥殷勤爲探看。

Seven-character-regular-verse

Li Shangyin

TO ONE UNNAMED III

Time was long before I met her， but is longer since we parted，

And the east wind has arisen and a hundred flowers are gone，

And the silk-worms of spring will weave until they die

And every night the candles will weep their wicks away.

Mornings in her mirror she sees her hair-cloud changing，

Yet she dares the chill of moonlight with her evening song.

……It is not so very far to her Enchanted Mountain

O blue-birds， be listening！-Bring me what she says！
