春望 【唐 杜甫】
國破山河在,城春草木深。
感時花濺淚,恨別鳥驚心。
烽火連三月,家書抵萬金。
白頭搔更短,渾欲不勝簪。
Spring View
The capital has fallen but our rivers and mountains remain,
It is springtime yet with weeds the city is overgrown。
Seeing flowers only makes me cry over the country's state,
Hearing birds upsets me as family separation I bemoan。
It’s March now but the fires of war seem to have no end,
Letters from loved ones are worth their weight in gold。
So worried I can't help but keep scratching my head,
Much of my grey hair lost the rest can barely a hairpin hold。
