All My Life, I Have Loved It (Picking Mulberries)
- Poetry of Ouyang Xiu

All my life, I have loved it- West Lake is good.

A crowd around the red wheels,

Riches and honours are floating clouds,

Look down, look up, the years flow on, twenty springs have passed.

Now returned, I look like a crane from the distant east.

The people around the city walls,

All are new that meet the eye,

Who can remember their governor from those olden days?
