"We play from the time we wake till the day ends.
“我們與黃金色的曙光遊戲，我們與銀白色的月亮遊戲。”
We play with the golden dawn, we play with the silver moon.

我問道：“但是，我怎麼能加入你們隊伍裡去呢?”
I ask, "But, how am I to join you?" They tell me, "Come to the edge of the shore and stand with your eyes tight shut, and you will be carried out upon the waves." 他們告訴我說：“來到岸旁，站在那裡，緊閉你的兩眼，你就被帶到波浪上來了。”

I have loved the sunlight, the sky and the green earth;
我喜愛那日光，那天空，那綠色的大地;
I have heard the liquid murmur of the river through the darkness of midnight;

Autumn sunsets have come to me at the bend of a road in the lonely waste, like a bride raisingher veil to accept her lover.
秋天的夕陽，在荒原上大路轉角處迎我，如新婦揭起她的面紗迎接她的愛人。
Yet my memory is still sweet with the first white jasmines that I held in my hand when I was achild.

Many a glad day has come in my life, and I have laughed with merrymakers on festival nights.
我生平有過許多快活的日子，在節日宴會的晚上，我曾跟著說笑話的人大笑。
On grey mornings of rain I have crooned many an idle song.
在灰暗的雨天的早晨，我吟哦過許多飄逸的詩篇。
I have worn round my neck the evening wreath of bakulas woven by the hand of love.
我頸上戴過愛人手織的醉花的花圈，作為晚裝。
Yet my heart is sweet with the memory of the first fresh jasmines that filled my hands when Iwas a child.

《新月集》經典詩歌：榕樹
O YOU shaggy-headed banyan tree standing on the bank of the pond, have you forgotten thelittle child, like the birds that have nested in your branches and left you?
喂，你站在池邊的蓬頭的榕樹，你可會忘記了那小小的孩子，就像那在你的枝上築巢又離開了你的鳥兒似的孩子?
Do you not remember how he sat at the window and wondered at the tangle of your roots thatplunged underground?
你不記得是他怎樣坐在窗內，詫異地望著你深入地下的糾纏的樹根麼?
The women would come to fill their jars in the pond, and your huge black shadow wouldwriggle on the water like sleep struggling to wake up.
婦人們常到池邊，汲了滿罐的水去，你的大黑影便在水面上搖動，好像睡著的人掙扎著要醒來似的。
Sunlight danced on the ripples like restless tiny shuttles weaving golden tapestry.
日光在微波上跳舞，好像不停不息的小梭在織著金色的花氈。
Two ducks swam by the weedy margin above their shadows, and the child would sit still andthink.
兩隻鴨子挨著蘆葦，在蘆葦影子上游來游去，孩子靜靜地坐在那裡想著。
He longed to be the wind and blow through your rustling branches, to be your shadow andlengthen with the day on the water, to be a bird and perch on your top-most twig, and tofloat like those ducks among the weeds and shadows.
他想做風，吹過你的蕭蕭的枝杈;想做你的影子，在水面上，隨了日光而俱長;想做一隻鳥兒，棲息在你的最高枝上;還想做那兩隻鴨，在蘆葦與陰影中間游來游去。
