WRITTEN AT VARIOUS-VIEWED TOWED
南徐多景楼作
How much grief to see the autumn wind blows
江头又见新秋，
By the riverside again!
几多愁？
Frontier grass skyward grows.
塞草连天，
Where’s the lost Central Plain?
何处是神州？
Our heroes’ tear on tear,
英雄恨，
Though shed from year to year,
古今泪，
With the eastward-going river flows.
水东流。
Only the moonshine
With my fishing line
唯有渔竿明月，
On Melon Islet goes.
上瓜洲。
