8. 登鸛雀楼
王之渙

Translated by Candi C. P. Liu (劉振蘋)

登鸛雀楼
Climbing the Stork Tower

Wang Zhihuan*
白日依山盡，黃河入海流；
The sun dips into the mountains
when the Yellow River keeps flowing into the sea.

欲窮千里目，更上一層樓。
To see things a thousand li* away
we need to climb up to a higher floor.


7. 江雪
柳宗元

Translated by Candi C. P. Liu (劉振蘋)

江雪
Snowy River

Liu Zongyuan*


千山鳥飛絕，萬徑人蹤滅.
All the birds have flown away from the mountains,
in which no human tracks can be seen on any path.


孤舟蓑笠翁，獨釣寒江雪.
Only an old man wearing a straw cape and a bamboo hat
is fishing alone in a boat on the snowy river.


6. 下江陵
李白

Translated by Candi C. P. Liu (劉振蘋)


 下江陵
Sailing Down to Jiangling

Li Bai*


朝辭白帝彩雲間，千里江陵一日還。
I left Baidi* in the morning
when the sky was filled with colored clouds.
I will reach Jiangling* by evening, 
a thousand li* away.
兩岸猿聲啼不住，輕舟已過萬重山。
As I hear the incessant calls of gibbons*
from the banks of the Yangtze River,
my little boat has passed countless mountains.


5. 登樂遊原
李商隱

Translated by Candi C. P. Liu (劉振蘋)


登樂遊原
A Carriage Ride to Le You Yuan

Li Shangyin*


向晚意不適，驅車登古原
Feeling blue and down at dusk,
I went up to the ancient highland in a carriage.

夕陽無限好，只是近黃昏
The sunset was so beautiful,
but, alas, it would be gone very soon.
