唐婉 《钗头凤》

世情薄，
人情恶，
雨送黄昏花易落。
晓风乾，
泪痕残。
欲笺心事，
独语斜阑。
难，难，难！

人成各，
今非昨，
病魂常似秋千索。
角声寒，
夜阑珊。
怕人询问，
咽泪装欢。
瞒，瞒，瞒！



Chai Tou Feng
Tang wan

The world callous,
And people mean,
Rain at twilight hastens flowers' fall.
Morning wind dry,
Smeared tears stains.
Letters about heartaches,
Soliloquyes by the balustrade.
Hard, hard, hard!

Everyone for himself,
Today not yesterday,
Ghost of sickness like swing ropes haunts.
Horns chilling,
Night receding.
Scared of people inquiring,
Swallowing tears and to look merry pretending.
Hide, hide, hide!
