江南春 杜牧


江南春         杜牧 (803-852)

十里鶯啼綠映紅,水村山郭酒旗風。  
南朝四百八十寺,多少樓臺煙雨中。  

Spring South of the River      Du Mu (803-852)

Along these ten miles of reds setting off by greens orioles twitter,
Amid villages by the water and city walls against the hills inn signs flutter,
The four hundred and eighty temples built by the South Dynasty Emperor,
Still stand salient amidst the mizzles and vapours.
