Su Dongpo: Below Mountain Orchid Buds: (Washed Stream Sand)

Below Mountain Orchid Buds: (Washed Stream Sand)

 山下兰芽 :涣 溪 沙
山 下 兰 芽 短 浸 溪
松 间 沙 路 净 无 泥
萧 萧 暮 雨 子 规 啼。
谁 道 人 生 无 再 少?
门 前 流 水 尚 能 西
休 将 白 发 唱 黄 鸡。
Shan Xia Lan Ya: (Huan Xi Sha)

Shan xia lan ya duan jin xi
Song jian sha lu jing wu ni.
Xiao xiao mu yu zi gui ti.

Shei dao ren sheng wu zai shao?
Men qian liu shui shang neng xi
Xiu jiang bai fa chang huang niao.

 

Below Mountain Orchid Buds: (Washed Stream Sand)

Below mountains, orchid buds and short shoots soak in a stream
Between the pine trees, sandy path clean, without mud or silt.
Rustling wind, sunset rain, cuckoo birds cry out.

Who said human life cannot be young again?
Water flowing in front of my door can move either east or west
Do not let white hair prevent you from moving onward.
