芙蓉楼送辛渐 – 王昌龄
寒雨连江夜入吴,平明送客楚山孤。
洛阳亲友如相问,一片冰心在玉壶。
Farewelling Chum – Xinjian at Hibiscus Tower by Wang Changling
Into Wu by night, cold rain joins rivers apace,
At dawn, sending thee off, alone Mt. Chu I face.
Should Luoyang kith and kin ask about me, pray tell...
My heart, like pure ice in a jade jug, keeps its grace.
Tr. Ziyuzile
