Stay Overnight With Travel Companions
旅 宿
旅 馆 无 良 伴
凝 情 自 悄 然。
寒 灯 思 旧 事
断 雁 警 愁 眠。
远 梦 归 侵 晓
家 书 到 隔 年。
沧 江 好 烟 月
门 系 钓 鱼 船。
Lu Su
Lu guan wu liang ban
Ning qing zi qiao ran.
Han deng si jiu shi
Duan yan jing chou mian.
Yuan meng gui qin xiao
Jia shu dao ge nian.
Cang jiang hao yan yue
Men ji diao yu chuan.
Stay Overnight With Travel Companions
At a traveler’s inn without good companions
Naturally sad with congealed emotions.
Cold lantern, for a long time think of friends and family
Flocks of wild geese alert, fears and melancholy affects my sleep.
Faraway dreams come back as daybreak approaches
My letter home may not arrive till next year.
Dark blue river, fine misty moon
All fishing boats tied up to their gates.
