Eat ice and coptis,trying to forget you.
but the ferry we parted i still revisit in my dream.
Leave me here,do you know how lonely i am?
like a wild butterfly,i halt at the blue daisy's dew.
Cricket weeps near the well,i fly in the autumn rain.
wind kisses the window,i kindle the silver candle.
Don't know if you can get my love letter in next spring,
i just catch the oar to wait for you like a spoony girl
饮冰食檗志无功，晋水壶关在梦中。
秦镜欲分愁堕鹊，舜琴将弄怨飞鸿。
井边桐叶鸣秋雨，窗下银灯暗晓风。
书信茫茫何处问，持竿尽日碧江空。
By Yu Xuanji
Classical Chinese poetry thrives on Concision and Ambiguity. Without tense or number, the words create a timeless space where the reader becomes the co-creator of the poem's meaning.
Look for Contrasts: light and shadow, movement and stillness. Don't just translate the words; feel the Yijing (artistic conception) that lingers long after the last character.
