林徽因《你是人间的四月天》
我说你是人间的四月天;
笑音点亮了四面风;
轻灵在春的光艳中交舞着变。
你是四月早天里的云烟,
黄昏吹着风的软,
星子在无意中闪,
细雨点洒在花前。
那轻,那娉婷,你是,鲜妍;
百花的冠冕你戴着,
你是天真,庄严,
你是夜夜的月圆。
雪化后那片鹅黄,你像;
新鲜初放芽的绿,你是;
柔嫩喜悦,
水光浮动着你梦中期待的白莲。
你是一树一树的花开,
是燕在梁间呢喃,
——你是爱,是暖,是希望,
你是人间的四月天
You Are This World's April Day
By Lin Huiyin
I say you are this world's April day
Your giggle lights up wind from all around
Your spirit in the brilliance of spring dances a roundelay
You are the cloud on an early April day
The dusk breathes to the soft of the wind
The stars twinkle an unconscious ray
The drizzle sprinkles the flowers gay
So light, so lithe, you are the bright fay
The floral crown you wear
In your innocent and grave way
You are the full moon night by night
Yellow like a gosling when snow thaws you look
Tender as the greenness of a new sprout you are
How delicate, o hurray
In the light of water your dreamlike white lotus flowers sway
You are the flowers blooming tree after tree
And the swallows on the beam chirping a lay
You are the love, the warmth, and the hope
You are this world's April day.
