钱凤纶·《眉峰碧·春日与亚清弈》

深院闲春昼，

小篆喷金兽。

一杯清茗一枰棋，

正杏雨香飞候。

鹦鹉新声溜，

蓦地惊回首。

无端输却玉搔头，

倚屏笑撚花枝嗅。

Meifeng bi: Playing Chess with Yaqing on a Spring Day

Qian Fenglun

In the deepest courtyard, on a quiet spring day,

The gold animal（1） puffs "small seal" incense.

With each fresh cup of tea, a new chess game begins.

In the season of apricot rains the air is sweet.

My parrot's chatter has just become fluent when,

Suddenly, he jumps down to the ground.

Distracted, I turn to look, and

To my dismay, needlessly forfeit a jade scratcher!

Leaning on the screen, laughing, we twist off a flowering branch to breathe its scent.（2）

（1）. The "gold animal" is a metal incense burner.

（2）. A head scratcher carved from jadeite, bone, ivory, or wood was a personal accessory in earlier China. The speaker has wagered her scratcher, sure of winning, but when she looks away she loses her concentration, the game, and the scratcher.
