庭中有奇树

《古诗十九首》

庭中有奇树，绿叶发华滋。

攀条折其荣，将以遗所思。

馨香盈怀袖，路远莫致之。

此物何足贵？但感别经时。

A Beautiful Tree in the Yard

From The Nineteen Ancient Poems

Tr. ZHAO Yanchun

A beautiful tree in the yard,

Out of its green leaves its flowers burn;

I pluck a blossom from a twig

For the one for whom I do yearn.

The fresh fragrance fills out my sleeve,

But I can’t send it as it’s too far.

It’s not something precious at all,

But our yearnings and pathos are.
