《墨梅图题诗》－ （元）王冕

吾家洗砚池头树，

个个花开淡墨痕。

不要人夸好颜色，

只留清气满乾坤。

A Quatrain by Wang Mian

(A Verse for an Ink Painting of Plum Blossoms)

Afore my inkstone-pool grows a plum tree,

Each of its blooms with delicate ink blows .

It craves no kudos for its hue from ye,

But all over the world its fragrance flows.

Tr. Ziyuzile
