Bai Juyi: Gaze Into the Distance From Jiangzhou

Gaze Into the Distance From Jiangzhou

望 江 州
江 回 望 见 双 华 表
知 是 浔 阳 西 郭 门。
犹 去 孤 舟 三 四 里
水 烟 沙 雨 欲 黄 皆。
Wang Jiang Zhou

Jiang hui wang jian shuang hua biao
Zhi shi xun yang xi guo men.                                                                                                You qu gu zhou san si li
Shui yan sha yu yu huang jie.

 

 Gaze Into the Distance From Jiangzhou

River returns, gaze into the distance to see a pair of ornamental columns
Aware of the western city walls of the Xunyang village.

My solitary boat traveled another mile or two
Waters and mists, the yellows of sand and rainy sunset.

 

Notes:

Jiangzhou: A Jiangxi prefecture in ancient China (6th-14th centuries AD).

Xunyang: County is southern Shaanxi Province, bordering Hubei Province.
