　　床前明月光，疑是地上霜。

　　Nostalgia

　　A splash of white on my bedroom floor. Hoarfrost?

　　I raise my eyes to the moon, the same moon.

　　As scenes long past come to mind, my eyes fall again on the splash of white, and my heart aches for home.

　　(翁顯良 譯)

　　Quiet Night Thoughts

　　Moonlight before my bed,

　　Could it be frost instead?

　　Head down, I think of home.

　　(趙甄陶 譯)

　　Thoughts in the Still of the Night

　　A pool of moonlight before the bed,

　　Took it to be frost on the ground.

　　And lowered it to think of home.

　　Reflections on a Quiet Night

　　Before my bed shine bright the silver beams,

　　It seems the autumn frost on the ground so gleams.

　　And downwards look when a nostalgia does arise.

　　In the still of the night

　　I descry bright moonlight in front of bed.

　　I suspect it to be hoary frost on the floor.

　　I watch the bright moon, as I tilt back my head.

　　I yearn, while stooping, for my homeland more.

　　(徐忠杰 譯)

　　A Tranquil Night

　　Before my bed a pool of light—

　　O can it be hoar-frost on the ground?

　　Before my bed the silver moonbeams spread—

　　Withdrawing my eyes my nostalgia comes around.

　　Unwittingly makes me miss my home.

　　lower them and dream of home.

　　In the Quiet Night

　　So bright a gleam on the foot of my bed—

　　Could there have been a frost already?

　　Sinking back again, I thought suddenly of home.

　　(Witter Bynner 譯)

　　Night Thoughts

　　As by my bed

　　the moon did beam,

　　It seemed as if with frost the earth were spread.

　　But soft I raise

　　My head, to gaze

　　At the fair moon. And now,

　　With head bent low,

　　Of home I dream.

　　(John Turner 譯)

　　Night Thoughts

　　I wake, and moonbeams play around my bed,

　　Glittering like hoar-frost to my wandering eyes;

　　Up towards the glorious moon I raise my head,

　　Then lay me down—and thoughts of home arise.

　　(Herbert A. Giles 譯)

　　And wondered if it were not the frost on the ground.

　　I raised my head and looked out on the mountain moon,

　　I bowed my head and thought of my far-off home.

　　(S. Obata 譯)

　　The Moon Shines Everywhere

　　Seeing the Moon before my couch so bright

　　I thought hoar frost had fallen from the night.

　　On her clear face I gaze with lifted eyes:

　　Then hide them full of Youth's sweet memories.

　　(W. J. B. Fletcher 譯)

　　Night Thoughts

　　On bed bright moon shone,

　　Thought frost on ground foamed,

　　Raised head faced bright moon,

　　Lowered head dreamt of home.
