徐燦·《一剪梅·送春》
春光九十已全拋。
送也魂銷(xiāo),
留也魂銷(xiāo)。
東君傳語(yǔ)謝妖嬈。
去也無(wú)聊,
往也無(wú)聊。
玉床香被展輕綃。
長(zhǎng)也今宵,
短也今宵。
愁紅休怕綠陰交,
早也明朝,
遲也明朝。
Yijian mei:
Seeing off Spring
Xu Can
Three months of spring radiance have all abandoned one:
Seeing it off consumes the soul;
Keeping it consumes the soul.
The Eastern Lord sends word to bid the enchanting adieu
Leaving makes one listless;
Staying makes one listless.
On the jade bed the perfumed quilt displays its light silk;
Tonight is long,
Tonight is short.
Sad flowers, fear not the green shadows twining with you
Tomorrow will be early,
Tomorrow will be late.
