Listen to this article此词接近欧阳修词和婉的风格。写荡舟女子对马上少年的倾慕之情，着重刻画女子的心理活动，细腻优美，情致缠绵。
《应天长》 王国维
紫骝却照春波绿，
波上荡舟人似玉。
似相知，
羞相逐。
一晌低头犹送目。
鬓云欹，
眉黛蹙。
应恨这番匆促。
恼一时心曲，
手中双桨速。
Tune: “Echoing Heaven’s Everlastingness”
A horse with a chestnut mane reflected in the green waves of the spring river;
Upon the waves, rowing a boat, a girl pretty as jade.
She seems to know him,
Yet too shy to follow—
For a moment she lowers her head and sends him a side glance.
Her cloud-like hair aslant,
Her painted eyebrows knitted—
Does she regret this brief meeting,
Or feel annoyed by the uncertainty of a moment?
Rowing with a pair of oars, she speeds away.
