With a Copy of My Poems

By Oscar Wilde

Recitalist：Mark Chao | Actor

I can write no stately proem

As a prelude to my lay;

From a poet to a poem

I would dare to say.

For if of these fallen petals

Once to you seem fair,

Love will waft it till it settles

On your hair.

And when wind and winter harden

All the loveless land,

It will whisper of the garden,

You will understand.

楚辭譯：

筆澀詞枯，難書華章 。

嚅嚅低語，肺腑一歌 。

殘花增色，汝之笑顏。

風銜落英，綴之青絲 。

凜冬又至，故土凋敝。

愿北風送吾思，越塞北寄與京。
