苏轼·《雨晴后，步至四望亭下鱼池上，遂自乾明寺前东冈上归·其二》英译

高亭废已久，下有种鱼塘。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

暮色千山入，春风百草香。

市桥人寂寂，古寺竹苍苍。

鹳鹤来何处，号鸣满夕阳。

A Stroll after the Rain (II)

Su Shi

After the rain I stroll to the fish-pond below Four-view Pavilion, returning by way of the east hill in front of Qianming Monastery.

The high pavilion has fallen into ruins,
Fish are raised in the pond below;

Dusk drifts in from the hills

And the spring wind is scented by meadows;

A hush has fallen over the market bridge,

Dark gown the bamboo round the old monastery;

Storks have come from none knows where

And their shrill cries fill the air as the sun sets.
