I am only an old woodsman, whispering a sob,
As I steal like a spring-shadow down the Winding River.
...Since the palaces ashore are sealed by a thousand gates --
Fine willows, new rushes, for whom are you so green?
...I remember a cloud of flags that came from the South Garden,
And ten thousand colours, heightening one another,
And the Kingdom\’s first Lady, from the Palace of the Bright Sun,
Attendant on the Emperor in his royal chariot,
And the horsemen before them, each with bow and arrows,
And the snowy horses, champing at bits of yellow gold,
And an archer, breast skyward, shooting through the clouds
And felling with one dart a pair of flying birds.
...Where are those perfect eyes, where are those pearly teeth?
A blood-stained spirit has no home, has nowhere to return.
And clear Wei waters running east, through the cleft on Dagger- Tower Trail,
Carry neither there nor here any news of her.
People, compassionate, are wishing with tears
That she were as eternal as the river and the flowers.
...Mounted Tartars, in the yellow twilight, cloud the town with dust.
I am fleeing south, but I linger-gazing northward toward the throne.

乐府
杜甫
哀王孙
长安城头头白乌, 夜飞延秋门上呼;
又向人家啄大屋, 屋底达官走避胡。
金鞭断折九马死, 骨肉不待同驰驱。
腰下宝玦青珊瑚, 问之不肯道姓名,
但道困苦乞为奴。
已经百日窜荆棘, 身上无有完肌肤。
高帝子孙尽隆准, 龙种自与常人殊。
豺狼在邑龙在野, 王孙善保千金躯。
不敢长语临交衢, 且为王孙立斯须。
昨夜东风吹血腥, 东来橐驼满旧都。
朔方健儿好身手, 昔何勇锐今何愚?
窃闻天子已传位, 圣德北服南单于。
花门剺面请雪耻, 慎勿出口他人狙。
