波浪男兒 屋後山前九曲溪 北窗高卧夕陽西 Behind my house, the stream makes nine turns

           《秋日幽居》    波浪男兒

    屋後山前九曲溪，  北窗高卧夕陽西；
    蟲鳴唧唧應秋雁，  鹿逐呦呦隨曉雞。
    一嶺延綿烟霧外，  獨峰聳入碧雲齊；
    荒郊冷月歸人晚，  宿鳥棲林猶夜啼。

"ONE AUTUMN DAY AROUND MY SECLUDED LODGE"
(An original and unique poem in Chinese composed with 'specified words' as dictated by a witty couplet.)
-- by 波浪男兒 'Wave-Chasing Guy'
-- Translated by by Frank C Yue

Behind my house, the stream makes nine turns 
                    and towards the mountain flows forth;
When the Sun sets in the west I'm still in bed 
                                             by the window north.
The cricket's loud chirping in response to 
                   th'Autumn wild-geese cries, there goes;
The barking deer chases after the doe 
                                       as morning cocks all crow.
The majestic mountain range stretches long 
                                   through the smoke and mists;
Tower'ng high, the lone summit rises up the 
                               sky, does the bright clouds kiss.
In the deserted country, a man returns late in
                                                 the cold moon-light;
Nested birds in the woods still sing now and 
                                             then in the young night.



此七言律詩是 波浪男兒 因 對聯:

       《 屋北鹿獨宿，
           溪西雞齊啼。》

而作，詩中韻句首字與尾字皆是順序用對聯二句之字，不能更改，故有 (屋、北、鹿、獨、宿) 等字用作詩句之首字。
( 聯首句 “屋北鹿獨宿” 全是入聲字，故不能用作韻脚，祗能順序放入詩句作首字。
