浣溪沙·卜居
蔡世平
收拾城嚣下故乡,
黄泥熟土布衣裳。
短歌新唱读书郎。
春种绿荫留客扫,
日移花影要蜂忙。
卜居岁月是真香。
吕文澎 译
Choosing a Home
—To the Tune of Yarn‑WashingBy CAI Shiping
Tr. LYU Wenpeng
Leaving the city's din, I homeward go—
To mellow clay and soil, in homespun garb.
A young scholar, I chant my brisk song new.
Spring‑planted shade keeps guests to stay and sweep;
The sun moves flowers' shadows, calls bees to toil.
How fragrant is this home, these days we keep!
Note: “Choosing a home”(卜居)or “choosing a dwelling by divination,” alludes to a famous piece in Odes and Elegies (or Songs of Chu). In this work, Qu Yuan (c. 340–278 BCE), a poet and statesman of the ancient Chu state, articulates his profound moral conflict in the guise of consulting an oracle.

Choosing a Dwelling
—To the Tune of "SILK-WASHING STREAM"
By Cai Shiping
Tr. Shu Enjiang
I pack the city’s noise and head for native land,
In yellow loam and homespun clothes I stand.
A short new song—a schoolboy’s voice so grand.
Spring plants green shade for guests to sweep and stay,
Sun shifts the bloom shadows to keep bees busy all day.
This chosen life—how truly sweet its ray!
