星星白发垂。
药饵情所止，
But missed the northern bank for longer time. The road seems long when I seek scenes sublime;
衰疾忽在斯。
逝将候秋水，
Time seems to fly when I try to look for more. I cross the rapid stream to reach an isle,
息景偃旧崖。
我志谁与亮？
Which is a wonder set amidst the stream. How the sun and clouds appear to beam!
赏心惟良知。
江南倦历览，
How the sky and water seem to smile! Its pretty scenery is not known to all
江北旷周旋。
怀新道转迥，
Who in the world is aware of its true worth? In my mind's eye, Mount Kunlun grand and tall
寻异景不延。
乱流趋正绝，
Is farther still away from mundane earth. If I should have Tao at my beck and call,
孤屿媚中川。
I can preserve the vigour, mine from birth.
