谈印梅·《金缕曲·检得亡姊遗诗,悲成此调》
偶把遗编读。
觉凄清、
风生满纸,
哀音裂竹。
貌比左芬年更少,
况又才逾徐淑。
肯久恋、
红尘千斛。
试问埋香何处好,
料青山、
也有修来福。
泉路下,
鬼应哭。
朝朝暮暮相追逐。
怎而今、
云消雨散,
形孤影独。
后会自然来世有,
谁道他生未卜。
可邀我、
同登仙箓。
昨夜分明惊入梦,
羡容颜、
依旧温如玉。
便携手,
述心曲。

Composed in Grief as I Sorted out My Sister's Posthumous Poems
Tan Yinmei
It happens when I read the pieces she left behind:
I can feel a chill, clear wind rising, filling the paper,
Its sorrowful sound cracking the bamboos.
In looks she compared with Zuo Fen, only more precocious;
What's more, her talent surpassed Xu Shu's.
She was ready to enjoy the full measure of this world of dust.
Let me ask then: where would be a good place to bury her fragrance?
Even the green hills would gain by her perfection.
Down the road to the Yellow Springs
Ghosts, too, must cry.
Every morning, every evening, we pursued each other's company.
Why now have the clouds disappeared and the rain dispersed?
And my form is single, my shadow alone.
Of course we'll meet again in worlds to come:
Who says that future lives have not yet been divined?
You can invite me to join you on the list of immortals.
I was startled when you came into my dream so clearly last night.
I admired your appearance, warm as jade as in old times.
So I held your hand
And told you my heart's worries.
