唐詩三百首英譯 張祜：集霛台之二

七言絕句

張祜

集霛台之二

虢國夫人承主恩， 平明騎馬入宮門。

卻嫌脂粉汙顔色， 淡掃蛾眉朝。

ON THE TERRACE OF ASSEMBLED ANGELS II

The Emperor has sent for Lady Guoguo.

In the morning， riding toward the palace-gate，

Disdainful of the paint that might have marred her beauty，

To meet him she smooths her two moth-tiny eyebrows.
