294 杜牧 – 秋夕
294 DU Mu – An Autumn Night

中文原文﹕

銀燭秋光冷畫屏，
輕羅小扇撲流螢。
天階夜色涼如水，
坐看牽牛織女星。

英文翻譯 / English Translation﹕

A candle flame flickers against a dull painted screen on an cool autumn night,
She holds a small silk fan to flap away dashing fireflies.
Above her hang celestial bodies as frigid as deep water,
She sat there watching Altair of Aquila and Vega of Lyra pining for each other in the sky.
