李白 故人西辭黃鶴樓，煙花三月下揚州。My old friend's journeying east of Yellow Crane Tower, Downstream to Yangzhou amid misty April flowers.


【送孟浩然之廣陵】    唐 • 李白       
 
故人西辭黃鶴樓，    煙花三月下揚州。
 
孤帆遠影碧空盡，    惟見長江天際流。
 

Bidding Meng Haoran Adieu, leaving for Guangling (Yangzhou)                    
-- by LI BAI (701-762)
-- Translated by Frank C Yue

My old friend's journeying east of Yellow Crane Tower,    
Downstream to Yangzhou amid misty April flowers.
Lone sail disappears down the edge of the azure sky;
Still, toward the horizon the Yangtze is rolling by.
