采桑子·轻舟短棹西湖好
欧阳修 〔宋代〕
轻舟短棹西湖好，绿水逶迤。芳草长堤，隐隐笙歌处处随。
无风水面琉璃滑，不觉船移。微动涟漪，惊起沙禽掠岸飞。
| Light boat short oar west lake good Green water gently curving Fragrant grass long dyke Faint pipe song everywhere followWithout wind water surface glaze smooth Not notice boat move Little move ripples Startle rise sand bird brush bank fly |
A light boat with short oars- West Lake is good. A gentle curve in the green water, Fragrant grass along the dyke, The faint sound of pipes and song follows me everywhere.Without a wind, the water’s surface lies as smooth as glaze. I don’t notice boats passing, Tiny movements start up ripples, Startled birds rise from the sand and graze the bank in flight. |
