Southern butterflies fleet
In slanting sun go pair by pair in flight,
With body powdered white
And heart fond of stealing fragrance sweet,
Born frivolous and light.
After light rain,
With thin wings dyed in misty stain,
Just come to small courtyard with roving bees,
They fly with willowdown o’er the wall in the breeze,
Busy for flowers now and again.
江南蝶,
斜日一雙雙。
身似何郎全傅粉,
心如韓壽愛偷香,
天賦與輕狂。
微雨后,
薄翅膩煙光。
才伴游蜂來小院,
又隨飛絮過東墻,
長是為花忙。
