《锦缠道·燕子呢喃》 宋祁

燕子呢喃，
景色乍长春昼。
睹园林，
万花如绣。
海棠经雨胭脂透。
柳展宫眉，
翠拂行人首。 　　
向郊原踏青，
恣歌携手。
醉醺醺、
尚寻芳酒。
问牧童、
遥指孤村道，
杏花深处，
那里人家有？

Jinchandao
A spring excursion
Song Qi
With swallows flying and twittering about,
A spring morn seems, on a sudden, to unfold.
Multifarious flowers in gardens, appear—
As a lengthy bolt of silk brocade unrolled.
Red begonias freshen after a rain,
As though o'er them several rough-coatings lie.
Willow-sprigs bend like eye-brows of court ladies—
So low, some caress the heads of passers-by.
Towards the suburbs, we take a leisurely stroll.
Hand in hand, we launch out into verse and line.
We must confess we are in a fuddled state.
Yet, we are looking for more excellent wine.
We ask a shepherd where such can be obtained.
To a far, sequestered hamlet, points the lad.
He says, deep among the apricot flowers,
Is that where such as drunkards love can he had.
