試譯 韓愈 芍藥

浩態狂香昔未逢,

Never before have I seen these full-sized and heavy-scented peonies.

红燈爍爍綠盤籠。

Rosy flowers like red lanterns flaring over saucer-shpaed green leaves.

覺來獨對情驚恐,

How was I overwhelmed by the beauty of their full bloom in the morning,

身在仙宫第幾重。

making me wonder if I was living somewhere in the heavenly palace?

PS I was inspired by Mr Reaizhuguo* and his "地球孤本" at http://classic-blog.udn.com/azhg/138064539 as to translate this poem.  Thanks to him.

韓愈和西方人一樣,芍藥和牡丹不分
劉禹錫卻在他的《賞牡丹》中寫道:

                庭前芍藥妖無格
                唯有牡丹真國色

*************
見過藍色的牡丹嗎?
