倪瓒《竹枝词 (五首其二)》

竹枝词
 (五首其二)


[元]倪瓒

湖边女儿红粉妆,

不学罗敷[1]春采桑。

学成飞燕春风舞,

嫁与燕山游冶郎[2]。




注释:

[1]罗敷:是汉代女子常用的名字,一般为美女的称呼,在《陌上桑》和《孔雀东南飞》中都出现了罗敷这个人物。

[2]游冶郎:指生活在繁华都市的风流少年。

Bamboo Branch Songs (II)

Ni Zan

The rosy-dressed girls live by lakeside as they please;

In spring they will not gather leaves of mulberries.

They learn to dance like swallows in the vernal breeze;

To wed the gallant Northerners and live at ease.[1]




注释:

[1]A satire against the Southern girls trying to wed the rich Northern conquerors.
