菩萨蛮·人人尽说江南好
人人尽说江南好，
游人只合江南老。
春水碧于天，
画船听雨眠。
Everyone says Jiangnan is good; a traveler should rightly grow old there. Its spring water is bluer than the sky; in a painted boat one listens to the rain and sleeps.
垆边人似月，
皓腕凝霜雪。
未老莫还乡，
还乡须断肠。
The girl beside the wine-jars is fair as the moon; her white wrists are congealed frost and snow. Do not go home while you are still young — to go home would surely break your heart.
阅读注记
“垆”借指酒肆。“霜雪”另见“双雪”，本页保留“霜雪”，英文与之对应。江南有按地名理解及联系蜀地寄意的不同解读，本页英文保留Jiangnan，不限定具体写作地点。“还乡”读huán xiāng。
