牡丹

薛涛

去春零落暮春时，泪湿红笺怨别离。

常恐便同巫峡散，因何重有武陵期。

传情每向馨香得，不语还应彼此知。

只欲栏边安枕席，夜深闲共说相思。

To the Peony Flower

Xue Tao

Petal by petal you fell in late spring last year;

Since you are gone, my paper s wet with tear on tear.

I am afraid you'd vanish like cloud in a dream.

How can I wish to see you on Peach Blossom Stream?

Your fragrance sweet reveals you have a loving heart;

Your silence shows we know each other far apart.

By the side of your balustrade I'd only sleep;

To tell you how I long for you when night is deep.

去年暮春的时节，牡丹花儿凋零了，我的眼泪打湿那深红小笺，怨恨与牡丹离别。常担心这样的离别，就像楚襄王和巫山神女梦中幽会般一散不复聚，为什么又会像那武陵人邂逅相逢？牡丹花散发芳香，传递着她的情意，虽然一句话不说，但彼此心灵相通。
