春宿左省-Lodging at the Left Yamen On a Spring Night
春宿左省
杜甫
花隐掖垣暮，啾啾栖鸟过。
星临万户动，月傍九霄多。
不寝听金钥，因风想玉珂。
明朝有封事，数问夜如何。
Lodging at the Left Yamen On a Spring Night
Du Fu
Flowers grow dim as dusk befalls the Yamen walls fast；
Merrily chirp returning birds when they skim past.
With the stars twinkling， thousands of doors seem to move；
O’er the sky-high palace more moonlight shines above.
Hearing the turn of golden keys， I lie awake
And think it is horse-bells’ ringing the wind does make.
As I have a memorial to present to-morrow，
How the night has worn on， at times I’ll ask to know.
