皇甫冉： 春思/ Huangfu Ran： SPRING THOUGHTS

皇甫冉: 春思/ huangfu ran: spring thoughts
春思
皇甫冉
莺啼燕语报新年， 马邑龙堆路几千。
家住层城邻汉苑， 心随明月到胡天。
机中锦字论长恨， 楼上花枝笑独眠。
为问天戎窦车骑， 何时返旆勒燕然。
spring thoughts
huangfu ran
finch-notes and swallow-notes tell the new year....
but so far are the town of the horse and the dragon mound
from this our house, from these walls and han gardens,
that the moon takes my heart to the tartar sky.
i have woven in the frame endless words of my grieving....
yet this petal-bough is smiling now on my lonely sleep.
oh, ask general dou when his flags will come home
and his triumph be carved on the rock of yanran mountain!
