一老年人 清香送 三月杏花豐 初發壓枝嫣勝火 By the breeze the fragrance carried far

《憶江南~杏花》一老年人 

     清香送，

     三月杏花豐。

     初發壓枝嫣勝火，

     終裝裹素脫脂紅。

     韻落影隨風。

        三月杏花豐  初發壓枝嫣勝火

TITLE: "Apricot Blossoms"

-- by One Old Man

-- Translated by Frank C Yue

By the breeze the fragrance carried far;
Luxuriant the apricot flow`rs in March.
When they first bloom they fill up the branch whole;
Their colour better than fire, like so.

Dressed just simply, 
Their red is not loud blatantly.
When the apricot  blossoms fall
Following the wind they`re no more.
