Georgics I 204 ff.

It’s just as much concern for us
to watch how Stars behave
As for the ones returning homeward
on the Wind and Wave,
Who tempt the oyster-bearing jaws
of a Bottomless Grave.

So note the day that balances
the night with equal Hours:
When Light and Shadow split the globe
in half, employ such powers
That drive the Beast and sow the Seed
before the Winter Showers.

Empezaré a traducir mis poemas al inglés, y creo que los pondré como imágenes y no como links por cosas de los caracteres, y si algún día termino mi partitura o libro (o el capitulo 1), me gustaría mostrárselos, estarías interesado?

This is a long shot, but would anyone here be able to provide a translation of this Tang era Chinese poem by Chen Biao (陈标,陳標) called《江南行》? In simplified characters:

水光春色满江天，蘋叶风吹荷叶钱。
香蚁翠旗临岸市，艳娥红袖渡江船。
晓惊白鹭联翩雪，浪蹙青茭潋滟烟。
不怕江洲芳草暮，待将秋兴折湖莲。
