惠崇春江晚景二首之一 蘇軾


惠崇春江晚景二首之一     (1037-1101)

竹外桃花三兩枝春江水暖鴨先知
蔞蒿滿地蘆芽短,正是河豚欲上時。

On Hui Chong’s painting ‘Night Scene of A Spring River ’(1)   
                                                                                      Su Shi (1037-1101)

Beside the bamboos strut a few sprays of peach blossoms,
When the river water turns warm ducks will be the first to know at the instant,
Mugworts run rampant while busting of fresh reeds has just begun,
It’s time puffers coming to the surface will easily be reckoned.
