风尘千里昏。
青袍异春草,
Far behind me is a shocking view. Rebellious troops have occupied the capital,
白马即吴门。
獭戎鲠伊洛,
Their horses trampling on the ground of Wu. The Tartars cross the rivers in the north
杂种乱辗辗。
辇道同关塞,
And take possession of commanding lands. Imperial highways swarm with Tartar troops;
王城似太原。
休明鼎尚重,
The capital town has fallen into their hands. Howe'er, the royal house has virtuous heirs;
秉礼国犹存。
殿牖交虽蹟,
The ancient ritual rules exist in the state. Although the sires predict long-lasting rule,
尧城吏转遵。
泣血悲东走,
The present king has not escaped ill fate. With great sorrow his heirs rush to the east;
横戈念北奔。
方凭七庙略,
Armed to the teeth, his heirs go to the north. With battle plans and tactics in their mind,
誓雪五陵冤。
To avenge their king they will stand forth.
