鶯梭 劉克莊


鶯梭        劉克莊 (1187-1269)

擲柳遷喬太有情,交交時作弄機聲。
洛陽三月花如錦,多少工夫織得成。

Oriole shuttles        Liu Kezhuang (1187-1269)

Gleefully the oriole shuttles between the willows and the trees through the day,
It twitters and twitters just like a weaver plying busily over her trade,
The flowery scenery of Luoyang in the third month is as fascinating as a piece of fine brocade,
How much work has it put in to have had this made?
