河上夏思
沙漠頑石山丘,
綠樹柔草河流,
急水淺灘孤舟。
雁陽無愁,
人在天涯守候。
Thoughts in Summer on the River
Desert, stubborn boulders, rolling hills,
green trees, soft waterweeds, a river,
rapids, shoals, a lone canoe.
They're carefree, so are geese and Sun.
I'm waiting in a remote city
with all their company.
I still feel lonely.
I learn to swim in my loneliness
or I'll drown.
