English Around the World

钗头凤 宋 · 陆游

红酥手。黄縢酒。 　　满城春色宫墙柳。 　　东风恶。欢情薄。 　一怀愁绪，几年离索。 　　 错、错、错。 　　　 春如旧。人空瘦。 　　泪痕红浥鲛绡透。 　　桃花落，闲池阁。 山盟虽在，锦书难托。 　　 莫、莫、莫。

And many little birds make melody That sleep through all the night with open eye

Whan that Aprill, with his shoures soote The droghte of March hath perced to the roote

And smale foweles maken melodye, That slepen al the nyght with open eye-
