五言律詩
李商隱
涼思
客去波平檻, 蟬休露滿枝。
永懷當此節, 倚立自移時。
北斗兼春遠, 南陵寓使遲。
天涯占夢數, 疑誤有新知。

THOUGHTS IN THE COLD
You are gone. The river is high at my door.
Cicadas are mute on dew-laden boughs.
This is a moment when thoughts enter deep.
I stand alone for a long while.
…The North Star is nearer to me now than spring,
And couriers from your southland never arrive —
Yet I doubt my dream on the far horizon
That you have found another friend.
