一老年人 刀勁呼呼箭疾輕 The broadsword cuts ferociously


《七 一老年人


   刀勁呼呼箭疾

   來回幾度戰無
   
   招招式式快如電

   貫注全神心力


Qi Jue (28-Character Quatrain): "Fighting"

-- by 一老年人  ‘A Man of Advanced Years’

-- Translated by Frank C Yue


The broadsword cuts ferociously
As the fast arrows fly blithely.
After fighting several rounds,
Still there is (strangely) not a sound.
Each move, each strike, quick as lightning;
With their all they are focusing.
