《忆王孙·冬词》 李重元

彤云风扫雪初晴,
天外孤鸿三两声。
独拥寒衾不忍听,
月笼明,
窗外梅花瘦影横。

The Prince Recalled
Song of Winter

The wind has swept away dark snow and cloud on high;
Two or three wild geese sing lonely songs in the sky.
Alone in my cold quilt, how can I bear their cry!
The moon is bright,
How slender are windowside mume blossoms in sight!
