The Qinhuai River
By Chou Yi
Tr. Qin Dachuan
I order a dish
And take Qinhuai into my arms
Whispers begin amid the sound of oars
And end in poetry
Sailing upstream
As I miss the history, I rummage through
Tang poems and Song lyricse, yet not knowing
Whose woman she is
(秦大川译)
点一道菜
把秦淮搂在怀里
私语,从桨声开始
在诗中停止
我逆水而来
错过了历史,翻遍了
唐诗宋词,也不知
她是谁的女人
