絕句 杜甫

絕句    杜甫(712-770)

遲日江山麗 ， 春風花草香。
泥融飛燕子 ， 沙暖睡鴛鴦。

A Jue Ju (Snapped Lines Poem)   Du Fu (712-770)

The day gets longer and longer as spring nears its end of call,

Mountains and rivers strut scintillating with graciously appealing thrills,

The lovely sun and zephyr are both soothing and genial,

New flowers and grasses imbue the air with whiffs of delightful smell,

The soil is well sodden amidst busily shuttling swallows,

Basking in the soothing sun on the warm sands are sleeping mandarin duck couples.
