《點絳唇》－ 李清照

 

寂寞深閨，柔腸一寸愁千縷。

惜春春去，幾點催花雨。

倚遍闌幹，衹是無情緒。

人何處，連天芳草，望斷歸來路。

 

Gazing Into the Distance

 (To the tune of Dian Jiang Chun )

 by Li Qingzhao

 

How lonely in my still bower,

My woe-wrung heart steeps in deepest despair.

I cherish every vernal hour,

Yet cold rains bid spring fade, too soon to bear. 

Against the handrails, here or there,

No way could I e’er lift the mood of mine.  

Alas, where art thou, where, where, where?  

Lo, from the long green grass to the skyline,  

A returning road, for my love I pine.
