【长相思】 清明祭母及英译

英译第2版(AABB韵）：

Then the ice was quite chilling,

And the snow was freezing.

I remember Mom's words as I was told,

And a warm coat given to hold.

After the days when the wind blew,

And the days the rain flew,

Now spring has come with bright rays；

And to my dream my Mom's face.

（湘西山民于2012年清明前夕）

白居易《长相思（汴水流）》

中中平，〖中中平〗。

汴水流，泗水流。

中仄平平中仄平，中平中仄平。

流到瓜州古渡头，吴山点点愁。

中中平，〖中中平〗。

思悠悠，恨悠悠。

中仄平平中仄平，中平中仄平。

恨到归时方始休，月明人倚楼。
