（三首其二）
刘祯
亭亭[2]山上松，
瑟瑟[3]谷中风。
风声一何盛，
松枝一何劲！
冰霜正惨凄，
终岁常端正。
岂不罹凝寒？
松柏有本性。
注释：
[1] 从弟：堂弟。
[2] 亭亭：高耸的样子。
[3] 瑟瑟：形容风声萧瑟凄凉。
The Pine-to My Cousin (II)
Liu Zhen
The pine on hill-top towers high;
The winds in the vale sough and sigh.
However violent they may be,
Unshakable stands the pine-tree.
The ice and forest look sad and drear;
The tree stands straight throughout the year.
Does it not fear the biting cold?
It stands on its own as of old.
