听筝-Listening to the Playing of the Zither

听筝

李端

鸣筝金粟柱,素手玉房前。

欲得周郎顾,时时误拂弦。

Listening to the Playing of the Zither

Li Duan

From golden-millet columns rings the zither sweet

When before the jade-bridge fair fingers and strings meet.

Anxious to win the praise of the man of her heart,

She at times makes mistakes in playing with a start.
