雙語 ● 舊時天氣舊時衣

TUNE: A SOUTHERN SONG

南歌子

On high the Silver River veers;

天上星河轉，

On earth all curtains are drawn down.

人間簾幕垂。

My mat and pillow grow chilly, wet with tears,

涼生枕簟淚痕滋。

I rise to take off my silk gown,

起解羅衣，

Wondering how old night has grown.

聊問夜何其？

Small is the green lotus on the robe I caress,

翠貼蓮蓬小?

And sparse the leaves embroidered in thread of gold.

金銷藕葉稀。

In old-time weather still I wear my old-time dress,

舊時天氣舊時衣。

Only my heart feels cold

只有情懷，

And the mood I’m in is different from that of old.

不似舊家時。
