无题
李商隐
昨夜星辰昨夜风，画楼西畔桂堂东。
身无彩凤双飞翼，心有灵犀一点通。
隔座送钩春酒暖，分曹射覆蜡灯红。
嗟余听鼓应官去，走马兰台类转蓬。

The time was last night when the wind blew and the stars shone
bright；
The place was west of Painted Bower and east of Cassia Hall.
Though we couldn’t be winged phoenixes making coupling flight，
Our hearts linked t’gether， answering Sacred Unicorn’s call.
Warm with wine of spring and over the red wax candle light，
Playing games “Send the Hook” and “Guess the Covered”
were we all.
But the drum-beat called me to Orchid Tower without delay，
So like a leaf of tumbleweed， I had to spur away.
