醉垂鞭 張先


醉垂鞭        張先 (990-1078)

雙蝶繡羅裙,東池宴,初相見。
朱粉不深勻,閒花淡淡春。  
細看諸處好,人人道,柳腰身。
昨日亂山昏,來時衣上雲。

Zui Chui Bian        Zhang Xian (990-1078)

A pair of butterflies on her skirt embroidered,
In a garden party at the east pond she first appears,
Without heavy make-up she looks just like an ordinary insouciant spring flower,
Everybody says she is enchanting, gracile and willowy slender,
Taking a careful look, I find her charms come from nowhere but everywhere,
Maybe from the misty clouds enshrouding the multidinous mountains last night she emerges.
