A Face

A face –
the only one
in the world . . .

A face –
an outcropping
of destiny . . .

Baffled
by the faint light
in the depth of the mirror,

unable
to seek
another face,

I wait,
in the night of the heart,
for the last sunrise.

English tr. by William I. Elliott and Kazuo Kawamura

《长相思令》
一重山

李煜

一重山，

两重山，
山远天高烟水寒，
相思枫叶丹。

菊花开，

菊花残。
雁已西飞人未还，
一帘风月闲。

Everlasting Missing
By Li Yu

Tr. By JOHMN

One of mountains
Two of mountains
Far mountains, high sky and cold misty rivers
Longing is just as red maple leaves

The blooming mums
The withering mums
The man hasn't come back, but wild geese've flown westwards
The moon in wind is idly shining fore my eyes

长相思
纳兰性德

山一程
水一程
身向榆关那畔行
夜深千帐灯

风一更
雪一更
聒碎乡心梦不成
故园无此声

YEARNING
By Nalan Dexing

Tr. By JOHN

One hill after another
One rill after another
Trudging toward Yu Pass further
Overnight in tents are lights brighter

One snow after another
One wind after another
Breaking the homesick dream gayer and better
In my hometown must be no blizzarding sound noisier
