寄 远
前 山 极 远 碧 云 舍
清 夜 一 声 白 雪 微。
欲 寄 相 思 千 思 月
溪 边 残 照 雨 霏 霏。

Qian shan ji yuan bi yun she
Qing ye yi sheng bai xue wei.
Yu ji xiang si qian si yue
Xi bian can zhao yu fei fei.

High and distant mountains partially behind bluish-green clouds
Clear evening, one set of sounds of profound baixue music.
Thinking of you, want to send this post via the moon hundreds of miles away
Remnants of daybreak, on a stream bank the rain falls thick and fast.
Notes:
Baixue music: Considered to be one of the ten best ancient songs, “White Snow in the Spring” was composed by Shi Kuang (572-532 BC). It is often played by the Chinese instrument guzheng.
