And free my sick old age from office! --
Flitting, flitting, what am I like
But a sand-snipe in the wide, wide world!

五言律诗
杜甫
登岳阳楼
昔闻洞庭水, 今上岳阳楼。
吴楚东南坼, 乾坤日夜浮。
亲朋无一字, 老病有孤舟。
戎马关山北, 凭轩涕泗流。

Du Fu
ON THE GATE-TOWER AT YOUZHOU
I had always heard of Lake Dongting --
And now at last I have climbed to this tower.
With Wu country to the east of me and Chu to the south,
I can see heaven and earth endlessly floating.
...But no word has reached me from kin or friends.
I am old and sick and alone with my boat.
North of this wall there are wars and mountains --
And here by the rail how can I help crying?

五言律诗
王维
辋川闲居赠裴秀才迪
寒山转苍翠, 秋水日潺湲。
倚杖柴门外, 临风听暮蝉。
渡头余落日, 墟里上孤烟。
复值接舆醉, 狂歌五柳前。

A MESSAGE FROM MY LODGE AT WANGCHUAN
TO PEI DI
The mountains are cold and blue now
And the autumn waters have run all day.
By my thatch door, leaning on my staff,
I listen to cicadas in the evening wind.
Sunset lingers at the ferry,
Supper-smoke floats up from the houses.
...Oh, when shall I pledge the great Hermit again
And sing a wild poem at Five Willows?
