双语诗歌翻译|杨巨源-《城东早春》

《城东早春》是唐代诗人杨巨源的诗作，抒写作者对早春的热爱之情。此诗虽只有第二句实写春色，而描写春色又只以柳芽一处，却概括了早春全景。后半段虽写仲春观花的惯常盛况，实际却更加反衬出早春的独特与诗人的慧眼。全诗语言精练，构思巧妙，对比鲜明，含蕴深刻，堪称佳篇。

《城东早春》 杨巨源

诗家清景在新春，绿柳才黄半未匀。
若待上林花似锦，出门俱是看花人。

Early Spring in the Eastern Suburb
Yang Juyuan

The signs of early spring attracts the poet's eye,
Ere willow's tender yellow turns to greenish dye.
Nor will he wait till tender shrubs in splendour blow,
For then, the crowd can also not the floral show.
