Snow at twilight

Language: English

Our translations: CHI

A starless sky and a slender moon, 
A silenced earth, like a silver noon, 
A vision of gnomes, with brows of snow, 
And the calm, wide white no bloom may know 
This is the world, and its heart is still, 
It shall fret no more its changeless will, 
Insensate beside its ashen hearth, 
Dumb it doth lie in the ice-wind's path.

黄昏雪

Language: Chinese (中文) after the English

无星天空伴月亮纤纤，
寂静大地如银色午间，
雪挂眉头是雪人外观，
鲜花不知洁白静与宽
这本世间心依旧安然，
不再烦恼意愿永不变，
梣树林边它感觉木然，
停在那冰风路上无言。
