雪无影:
月儿弯 月儿弯 书生å年是寒窗
伊人妆 秋眉晃 宛在水中央
 
yuè er wÄn / yuè er wÄn / shÅ« shÄ“ng shí nián shì hán chuÄng

The moon is curved. The moon is curved. A scholar spends ten years studying assiduously in poor conditions.
That lady [puts on] makeup. [Her] graying eyebrows sway, as if [reflected] in the middle of water.

[in] the small town, it quietly drizzled in the evening.
The leaves swayed in the wind.
I, absent-minded, [was hurrying] along, carrying [my] book trunk.
Yet you, under the umbrella, were so beautiful.

As if was painfully young, became stupefied,
[Asking] whether it would be possible to use this small pavilion as a shelter.
"Oh young lady, may I ask for your age?" I was infatuated.

Using word after word, sentence after sentence of writing
To trade for engraved remembrance that will last a lifetime.
Upon turning around, the only thing left was someone's sigh from those days.

That spell of rain never stopped; [it] has already carved out a lasting mark.
And how could I, a mere peasant, gain the young lady's favor?
[My brain is] full of poetry and literature, but alas, it is in vain for cannot express my heart.

是è½èŠ±ä¹Ÿæ— æƒ… 是彻夜的怜悯

It is that the flower is also affectionless[1]. It is pity that lasts through the night.
[A scene] that resembles the scene from back then rouses me from my dream.
surmount that bottleneck [and] firmly keep in mind your name.

梦醒的离别å´åªæ¢å¾—è½å¯žæœ‰å‡ è®¸

看她给的背影 缘分的痕迹
一介布衣 åˆä½•必长情

It is probably the drizzle last night that has dyed someone's chignon gray.
The separation [that occurs upon] waking from a dream only brings how much loneliness in exchange?
[This] inevitable train of thought causes layers of ripples.
Gazing at the view of her back, [at] the vestiges of [our] fate,
[i am] a mere commoner, so what need is there for [me] to be lasting in [my] affections?

I only hope to achieve a high rank in the imperial exams [such that I may] take you, whom love dearly, to be [my] wife.

T/N:
 
[1] è½èŠ±ä¹Ÿæ— æƒ…: This is derived from the saying "è½èŠ±æœ‰æ„ï¼Œæµæ°´æ— æƒ…" (the falling flower has the intention [to love], [but] the flowing water is heartless), which describes a unrequited love.
