薛濤·《蟬》

露滌音清遠，風吹故葉齊。

聲聲似相接，各在一枝棲。

Cicadas

Xue Tao

Dew drops bathe their clear, distant tones

When wind blows together a few leaves.

Sound after sound seems closely joined,

Though each lives on a different branch.

（Anthony C. Yu 譯）

Cicadas

Xue Tao

The clear, pure sounds of dripping dew

carry far away;

withered leaves blown by the wind

pile up day by day.

The chirping of each insect

seems to join with the rest,

even if every one of them

has a separate nest.

（Bannie Chow, Thomas Cleary 譯）
