Lotus - 蓮花

Lotus

 

by Yan Du (in Song dynasty)

A pond formed its shape in the dark-green moss
Lotus flowers, standing high-and-low above the green leaves
A lotus blooming in the early morning fog
just as a Queen coming fresh from the bath

 

 

 

< 蓮花 > 宋•杜衍
鑿破蒼苔作小池，芰荷分得綠參差。
曉來一朵煙波上，似畫真妃出浴時。

 

 

 

多謝“ 七色土 ”先生在文學城“詩歌論壇”貼出這首“蓮花”詩，使在下有機會第一次欣賞到它。

附七色土朋友改動後的譯本：

Lotus

A pond, carving its shape in the dark green moss
Lotus flowers, standing high and low above the green leaves
A lotus blooming in the early morning fog
as a Queen fresh from her bath

[蘿莉亞]

喜歡這個，你的蓮花，有種出塵的美！
