春 歸

——贈威廉·多勒斯先生

雨水頻臨杏未開，

牆頭寂寞月徘徊。

何妨覓得春歸處，

樹不招搖雀自來。

The Spring Is Coming

       ---For Mr. William Doreski

Because it has often rained,

Apricot trees haven’t bloomed.

Now and then, the pale moon

lingers lonely on the wall.

The trees do not flaunt

yet birds rush to their branches.

Why don't you look?

Spring is coming back.
