Ode to the Plum Flowers
by Zedong Mao
Wind and rain is bringing back the Spring
While flying snow is ready to embrace its coming.
Now a huge wall of ice on a high cliff there
I behold a tree of plum blossoms so sweet and fair.
The blossoms never compete with other flowers
But willing to be a messenger of the Spring hours.
When a world of flowers are seen,
She is smiling in the red and green.

注：要翻出原词用词的铿锵味，难。所以只能从词的意义上作努力，力求主要意义的完整性和词作翻译的可读性。至于rhyme问题，原词为传统的隔句押韵，现处理成aa, bb, cc的形式，双句押韵。力求朗读上比较顺口。至于百丈冰等中文中虚指的量词，若翻译出则比较拗口，按英文习惯一般化处理。
