梅花
墙角数枝梅，
凌寒独自开。，
遥知不是雪，
为有暗香来。
王安石
Plum blossom
The branches of the plum tree in the corner of a wall
Blossom alone in the freezing cold.
You can tell from a distance it’s not snow
When its fragrance surprises you.

元日
爆竹聲中一歲除，
春風送暖入屠蘇。
千門萬戶曈曈日，
總把新桃換舊符
王安石
New Year
Firecrackers explode as a year ends.
Spring breezes impart warmth to the herb-infused wine.
The rays of the sun fall on a thousand gateways, ten thousand doors.
Where new peachwood charms are hung in place of the old.

去年元夜时
花市灯如昼.
月上柳梢头.
人约黄昏后.
今年元夜时
月与灯依旧.
不见去年人.
泪湿春衫袖.
朱淑真
Song of Spring
Last year on the night of watching lanterns
The flower market was lit up like the daytime.
The branches of the willow tree framed in the moonlight.
She and I met as we had promised, after sunset.
This year on the night of watching lanterns
The moonlight is as bright as a year ago.
There is no sign of her.
I cry, wetting the sleeves of my spring clothes.

絕 句
兩 個 黃 鸝 鳴 翠 柳
一 行 白 鷺 上 青 天。
窗 含 西 嶺 千 秋 雪
門 泊 東 吳 萬 裡 船。
杜唐
Poem
Two yellow orioles call from the dark blue of willow branches.
A column of white egrets climb the clear sky.
In my window the Eastern Mountain holds the snows of a thousand autumns.
Ships from Wu, far to the east, ten thousand li from here, moored by my door.
Du Fu

清明
清明时节雨纷纷，
路上行人欲断魂。
借问酒家何处有？
牧童遥指杏花村。
杜牧
On the Day for the Sweeping of Graves
On the Day for the Sweeping of Graves
It rains steadily.
On the highway the travellers
Are broken with grief.
Please, is there a tavern
Where we can stop to drink wine?
The shepherd-boy points to the far distant
Village of Apricot Flowers.

靜夜思
床前明月光
疑是地上霜
举头望明月
低头思故乡。、
李白
Thoughts on a Quiet Night
In front of my bed the bright moonlight
Is not to be mistaken for frost on the ground.
I lift my head to stare at the moonlight.
I lower it. I think of my village.
