夜月星河 秋暮漫觀明月 冬朝垂鈎寒江 At leisure, I watch the Moon bright In so young an Autumn night.

《西江月‧ 漁翁》夜月星河

秋暮漫觀明月， 冬朝垂鈎寒江。
煙波極目水滄滄， 一任扁舟漾盪。

雲靄遠山寂寂， 天涯海角茫茫。
孤篷一覺夢黄粱， 隨伴沙鷗逐浪。

-- Translated by Frank C Yue

At leisure, I watch the Moon bright
In so young an Autumn night.
Alone in one Winter morning,
On the cold river I'm ang'ing.
O Just  waves and light haze,
Far as one's eyes may gaze.
I'll let this small boat carrying me
To bob and float and drift free!

With the mists and clouds in the sky,
Far-off mountain's silent and high.
At the sea's corner and sky's end,
Do you know where you're going (-- m'friend)?
Lone sail on Time's moving stream,
One's life-time is but just a dream!
Let's follow the gay sand-gulls way --
Go with The Flow and the chase the wave!
