So dim, so dark,So dense, so dull,So damp, so dank,So dead!The weather, now warm, now cold,Makes it harderThan ever to forget!How can a few cups of thin wineBring warmth againstThe chilly winds of sunset?I recognize the geese flying overhead:My old friends,Bring not the old memories back!Let Fallen flowers lie where they fall.To what purposeAnd for whom should I decorate ?By the window shut,Guarding it along,To see the sky has turned so black!And the dizzle on the kola nutKeeps on droning:Pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat!Is this the kind of mood and momentTo be expressedBy one word "sad?" 林语堂翻译的
