《落叶》是隋朝诗人孔绍安所写的一首五言绝句。主要是借用了秋天独有的景色——落叶,把自己比喻为落叶在空中漂浮不定,表明了作者身处他乡的无奈,凄凉。

《落叶》 孔绍安

早秋惊落叶,飘零似客心,
翻飞未肯下,犹言惜故林。

Fallen Leaves
Kong Shaoan

In early autumn leaves fall to my surprise,
Adrift just like the state of a wanderer’s heart.
They turn and fly, unwilling to meet their demise,
As though saying, “From our home forest we won’t part”.
