一朵红红的玫瑰 O my love’s like a red red rose

啊,我的爱人像一首乐曲 That’s sweetly play’d in tune! 演奏得甜美而合拍!
As fair are you, my boonie lass,
你是那么美丽,我的好姑娘 ,
So deep in love am I:
我爱你那么深切: And I will love you still, my dear,
我会永远爱你,亲爱的, Till all the seas gone dry: 直到四海枯竭:
Till all the seas gone dry, my dear, 直到四海枯竭,亲爱的,And the rocks melt with the sun; 岩石被太阳溶解;I will love you still, my dear, 亲爱的,我会永远爱你,While the sands of life shall run. 只要生命永不停歇。
And fare you well, my only love,
再见吧,我惟一的爱人,And fare you well a while! 我和你暂时别离!And I will come again, my love, 我会回来的,我的爱人,Though it were ten thousand mile. 即使相隔万里 .
A poem written in 7 steps
Cao ZhiThey were boiling beans on a beanstalk fire,
Came a plaintive voice from the pot,“O, why since we sprang from the self-same root,
Should you kill me with anger hot?”
七步诗 曹植 煮豆燃豆萁 , 豆在釜中泣。 本是同根生 , 相煎何太急。
Thoughts in the Silent Night Beside my bed a good of light-
Is it boardfrost on the ground? I lift up my eyes and see the moon, I bend my head and think of home.
静夜思床前明月光,疑是地上霜;举头望明月,低头思故乡。
