【次潼關先寄張十二閣老】 北宋 • 韓愈           
 
荊山已去華山來，    
日出潼關四扇開。
刺史莫辭迎候遠，    
相公親破蔡州回。
 

Staying at Tong Guan and Writing Ahead to His Excellency Governor Zhang                
-- by HAN YU (1036-1101)
-- Translated by Frank C Yue

Leaving Jing Shan, toward Hua Shan the armies now on their way;
Sunrise over Tong Guan lights up the skies at the break of day. 
May Your Exc'llency receive the victors a long way from town;
Premier's return'ng to the capital, hav'ng the revolt put down.
