嫦娥——李商隐

嫦娥

李商隐

云母屏风烛影深， 长河渐落晓星沈。

嫦娥应悔偷灵药， 碧海青天夜夜心。

TO THE MOON GODDESS

Li Shangyin

Now that a candle-shadow stands on the screen of carven marble

And the River of Heaven slants and the morning stars are low,

Are you sorry for having stolen the potion that has set you

Over purple seas and blue skies, to brood through the long nights?
