《声声慢》
Sadness in Autumn (Slow Tune)
寻寻觅觅，冷冷清清，凄凄惨惨戚戚。
Seeking and searching,
Being left somewhere desolate and deserted,
I feel depressed and dejected.
乍暖还寒时候，最难将息。
Warmer as the weather is,
There is still a chill.
How hard it is to heal my body and soul
In such a fickle fall?
三杯两盏淡酒，怎敌他、晚来风急！
By a couple of light wines,
How could I at dusk
Withstand a gust of wind?
雁过也，正伤心，却是旧时相识。
While wild geese fly overhead,
I am broken-hearted.
Oh, I recognize they are my old acquaintances.
满地黄花堆积，憔悴损，如今有谁堪摘？
Pieces of yellow flowers pile on the ground,
Faded and withered.
Who will now pick them up?
守着窗儿，独自怎生得黑！
By the window,
I remain motionless.
How could I alone suffer through the darkness?
梧桐更兼细雨，到黄昏、点点滴滴。
Drizzles fall on leaves of Wutong trees,
Dripping till sunset.
这次第，怎一个愁字了得！
Oh, is an occasion like this
Only expressed by one word “sadness”?
