金缕衣

                  杜秋娘

劝君莫惜金缕衣，

劝君须惜少年时。

花开堪折直须折，

莫待无花空折枝。

The Gold-threaded Gown

                                                     Du qiuniang

I urge you,

Cherish not the gold-threaded gown;

Cherish instead the days while you’re young.

When flowers are in bloom,

Pick them while you may:

Wait not, lest no flowers

but only bare twigs can be found.
