...At news of a stranger the people all assemble,
And each of them invites him home and asks him where he was born.
Alleys and paths are cleared for him of petals in the morning,
And fishermen and farmers bring him their loads at dusk....
They had left the world long ago, they had come here seeking refuge;
They have lived like angels ever since, blessedly far away,
No one in the cave knowing anything outside,
Outsiders viewing only empty mountains and thick clouds.
...The fisherman, unaware of his great good fortune,
Begins to think of country, of home, of worldly ties,
Finds his way out of the cave again, past mountains and past rivers,
Intending some time to return, when he has told his kin.
He studies every step he takes, fixes it well in mind,
And forgets that cliffs and peaks may vary their appearance.
...It is certain that to enter through the deepness of the mountain,
A green river leads you, into a misty wood.
But now, with spring-floods everywhere and floating peachpetals --
Which is the way to go, to find that hidden source?

乐府
李白
蜀道难
噫吁戏, 危乎高哉!
蜀道之难难于上青天!
蚕丛及鱼凫, 开国何茫然。
尔来四万八千岁, 始与秦塞通人烟。
西当太白有鸟道, 可以横绝峨眉巅。
地崩山摧壮士死, 然后天梯石栈方钩连。
上有六龙回日之高标, 下有冲波逆折之回川。
黄鹤之飞尚不得, 猿猱欲度愁攀援。
青泥何盘盘, 百步九折萦岩峦,
扪参历井仰胁息, 以手抚膺坐长叹。
问君西游何时还? 畏途巉岩不可攀。
但见悲鸟号古木, 雄飞雌从绕林间;
又闻子规啼, 夜月愁空山。
蜀道之难难于上青天!
使人听此凋朱颜。
连峰去天不盈尺, 枯松倒挂倚绝壁。
飞湍瀑流争喧豗, 砯崖转石万壑雷。
其险也如此! 嗟尔远道之人,
