木 瓜
投我以木瓜,报之以琼琚。
匪报也,永以为好也!
投我以木桃,报之以琼瑶。
匪报也,永以为好也!
投我以木李,报之以琼玖。
匪报也,永以为好也!
本诗出自《诗经·卫风》,是先秦时期卫国的一首描述爱情的民歌,也是传诵最广的《诗经》名篇之一。

Quince
Tr. ZHAO Yanchun
She gave a quince to me;
I paid her back a stone.
Repayment it can't be,
But a sign of love, love alone.
She gave a peach to me;
I paid her back in jade.
Repayment it can't be,
But a sign of love, as won't fade.
She gave a plum to me;
I paid her back a gem.
Repayment it can't be,
But a sign of love, as won't stem.
