清平乐
忆吴江[1]赏木樨[2]
辛弃疾
少年痛饮，
忆向吴江醒。
明月团团高树影，
十里水沉烟冷。
大都一点宫黄，
人间直恁[3]芬芳。
怕是秋天风露，
染教世界都香。
注释：
[1]吴江：太湖的支流，也叫松江，俗名苏州河。在今江苏省苏州市吴江区。
[2]木樨：桂花的别称。因其树木纹理如樨，故名木樨。
[3]直恁：竟然这样。恁，这样、如此。

To Laurel Flowers Enjoyed at Wujiang
Xin Qiji
While young, I drank till drunk, awake from dream,
I remember I found in face the Southern Stream.
The full moon cast your shadow all around
On mist-veiled water deep, flowing without a sound.
Only a yellow dot of mirth
Spreads so much fragrance on earth.
Dyed in autumn breeze and dew,
You would give the whole world a perfume new.
注释：
The poet describes the spirit of the laurel flower and reveals his own spirit.
