风潮难具论。
洲岛骤回合,
As wind and storm may come when I’m aboard.
圻岸屡崩奔。
乘月听哀狖,
The torrents run against a bar or isle And break in sprinkles bankwards all the while.
泪露馥芳荪。
春晚绿野秀,
I hear the apes wail in the moon-lit boat And smell the dew-besoaked fragrance afloat.
千念集日夜,
万感盈朝昏,
I see the flowers flourish by the rills And white clouds gather on the tops of hills.
攀崖照石镜,
牵叶入松门。
A sea of woe assails me night and day; A world of feelings surges in every way.
三江事多往,
九派理空存。
I climb the cliff to reach Stone Mirror Hill
灵物吝珍怪,
异人秘精魂。
And trail the vines to reach Pine Gateway Hill.
金膏灭明光,
水碧辍流温。
Yet immortals are only stories of the past And miraculous practices no longer last.
徒作千里曲,
弦绝念弥敦。
Mysterious objects are no longer found; Sagacious people no longer come around.
