Yet whose poems, ten years refused, are shaming
These white hairs held by the petalled pin.

七言律诗
韦应物
寄李儋元锡
去年花里逢君别, 今日花开又一年。
世事茫茫难自料, 春愁黯黯独成眠。
身多疾病思田里, 邑有流亡愧俸钱。
闻道欲来相问讯, 西楼望月几回圆。

Wei Yingwu
TO MY FRIENDS LI DAN AND YUANXI
We met last among flowers, among flowers we parted,
And here, a year later, there are flowers again;
But, with ways of the world too strange to foretell,
Spring only brings me grief and fatigue.
I am sick, and I think of my home in the country-
Ashamed to take pay while so many are idle.
...In my western tower, because of your promise,
I have watched the full moons come and go.

七言律诗
韩翃
同题仙游观
仙台初见五城楼, 风物凄凄宿雨收。
山色遥连秦树晚, 砧声近报汉宫秋。
疏松影落空坛静, 细草香闲小洞幽。
何用别寻方外去? 人间亦自有丹丘。

Han Hong
INSCRIBED IN THE TEMPLE OF THE WANDERING GENIE
I face, high over this enchanted lodge, the Court of the Five Cities of Heaven,
And I see a countryside blue and still, after the long rain.
The distant peaks and trees of Qin merge into twilight,
And Had Palace washing-stones make their autumnal echoes.
Thin pine-shadows brush the outdoor pulpit,
And grasses blow their fragrance into my little cave.
...Who need be craving a world beyond this one?
