雙語詩歌:Meeting at Night

Meeting at Night

The gray sea and the long black land;

And the yellow half-moon large and low;

And the startled little waves that leap

In fiery ringlets from their sleep,

As I gain the cove with pushing prow,

And quench its speed i’ the slushy sand.

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach

Three fields to cross till a farm appears;

A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch

And blue spurt of a lighted match,

And a voice less loud, thro’ its joys and fears,

Than the two hearts beating each to each!

夜會

長岸黑黝黝，

大海灰濛濛;

半月黃又大，

遠遠掛低空。

我駕小船來，

疾馳多奮勇;

船頭驚細浪，

環環映月紅。

終於進港灣，

船滯淤沙中;

棄船登沙岸，

海風暖融融。

心頭情切切，

腳步快如風;

沙灘一片片，

田野一壟壟。

心頭情切切，

腳步快如風;

眼前現農舍，

舉手敲窗櫺。

火柴輕輕摖，

脆響急匆匆;

只見藍光閃，

砰然兩心動。

但聽輕聲喚，

驚喜又惶恐;

燈照心裏亮，

情比夜色濃。
