雙語 ●一棹碧濤春水路

TUNE: PURE SERENE MUSIC

I could not persuade you to stay;

Drunk, you untied the cabled boat and went away.

Dipping the oars into green waves of spring,

You’d pass all trees where golden orioles sing.

The ferry’s green with willows, leaf on leaf

And twig on twig reveal the parting grief.

Write no more letter if you forget the fresh shower

Brought by the cloud for thirsting flower!

清平樂

留人不住?

醉解蘭舟去。

一棹碧濤春水路，

過盡曉鶯啼處。

渡頭楊柳青青，

枝枝葉葉離情。

此后錦書休寄，

畫樓云雨無憑。
