Crying For Imperial Advisor Li Zhongmin
哭 李 给 事 中 敏
阳 陵 郭 门 外
坡 陁 丈 五 坟。
九 泉 如 结 友
兹 地 好 埋 君。
Ku Li Gei Shi Zhong Min
Yang ling guo men wai
Po tuo zhang wu fen.
Jiu quan ru jie you
Zi di hao mai jun.
Crying For Imperial Advisor Li Zhongmin
Yangling outside the outer city walls
Slopes layered and rugged, several ten-foot graves.
Among the deterred there are many friends.
You are hidden in this good earth awaiting for me to join you.
Notes:
Yangling: Imperial cemetery built outside the capital in 153 AD during the Han Dynasty. Today it is known as Gaoling.
