葉紹翁簡介

遊小園不值英文譯文

（宋）葉紹翁

應嫌屐齒印蒼苔，十扣柴扉九不開。春色滿園關不住，一枝紅杏出牆來。

visit to the garden when host’s not in

by ye shaoweng (song dynasty)

as hating so much on the lawn to have the prints of shoes

that oft at nine knocks out of ten the wooden gate oped not;

but spring bearties all o’er the garden no one can enclose,

so outstretch’s o’er the wall a bough of red apricot.
