白水繞東城。
White water girds the eastern town.
此地一為別，
Here is the place to say good-bye,
孤蓬萬里征。
You'll drift out, lonely thistledown.
浮雲游子意，
Like floating cloud you'll float away;
落日故人情。
With parting day I'll part from you.
揮手自茲去，
We wave and you start on your way,
瀟瀟班馬鳴。
Your horse still neighs: "Adieu! adieu!"
