春晴 王駕

春晴         王駕 (851 - ?)

雨前初見花間蕊，雨後全無葉底花；
蜂蝶紛紛過牆去，卻疑春色在鄰家。

A spring day when rain has cleared          Wang Jia (851 - ?)

Florets and buds caught my glimpse before the rain,
But after it amid the foliage none of these remains,
Bees and butterflies are busily flying over the wall to my neighbor’s precincts,
Maybe the vernal colours there have taken on a more sparkling swing.
