莲花坞
The Lotus Dock

作者：王维
Author:Wang Wei

日日采莲去，
In picking lotus from that islet far,

洲长多暮归。
You're often back to see the evening star.

弄篙莫溅水，
Please don't send water splashing while you punt,

畏湿红莲衣。
Or else the scarlet lotus dress you'll mar!

遗爱寺

作者：白居易

弄石临溪坐，

寻花绕寺行。

时时闻鸟语，

处处是泉声。

独坐敬亭山
Sit Alone on Ching-ting Hill

作者：李白
Author:Li Bai

众鸟高飞尽，
The birds flown and all high away,

孤云独坐闲。
Lone cloud floated by in heedless mood.

相看两不厌，
Never tired of looking at each other,

只有敬亭山。
Only the Jingting Mountain and me.

绝句（一）

作者：杜甫

迟日江山丽，

春风花草香。

泥融飞燕子，

沙暖睡鸳鸯。

宿建德江
Passing the Night on a River in Jiande

作者：孟浩然
Author:Meng Haoran

移舟泊烟渚，
I guide my boat to mooring by a misty islet,

日暮客愁新。
With the setting sun, a traveller's sorrows revive.

野旷天低树，
Wilds so vast, the sky stoops to the trees，

江清月近人。
The river so clear, moon close to man.

曲池荷

作者：卢照邻

浮香绕曲岸，

圆影覆华池。

常恐秋风早，

飘零君不知。

哥舒歌
GENERAL GE SHU

作者：西鄙人
Author:Xi Biren

北斗七星高，
This constellation， with its seven high stars，

哥舒夜带刀。
Is Ge Shu lifting his sword in the night.

至今窥牧马，
And no more barbarians， nor their horses， nor cattle，

不敢过临洮。
Dare ford the river boundary.

蝉
The Cicada

作者：虞世南
Author:Yu Shinan

垂绥饮清露，
The feelers down drinking fresh dew,

流响出疏桐。
From sparse phoenix trees flows your trill.

居高声自远，
High perching, far your voice would strew,

非是藉秋风。
To which the autumn wind aids nil.

易水送别
Adieu! By the Yishui River

作者：骆宾王
Author:Luo Binwang

此地别燕丹，
Here,he parted with Dan,

壮士发冲冠。
Yan's prince'nd the paladin flamed the annoyance.

惜时人已没，
Bygone is the One figure of the Old,

今日水有寒。
Now that still the water with chillness.

渡汉江
Crossing the Han River   

作者：宋之问
Author：Song Zhiwen 

岭外音书断，
Beyond the ridges interflows are severed,

经冬复历春。
Go past the winter and taste spring again.  

近乡情更怯，
The more homeward, more anxious I am, 

不敢问来人。
And I don't dare to inquire local folks,then.
