白日沦西阿，
Mulberry trees by the Yangtze River grow,
素月出东岭。
遥遥万里晖，
Which people planted there three years ago. At the time when twigs and boughs would sprout,
荡荡空中景。
风来人房户，
It happened that a serious flood broke out. The twigs and leaves were torn from the tree
夜中枕席冷。
While roots and trunks were floating on the sea.
