Li Bai: Alone at a Jing Mountain Pavilion

 

[updated October 2022]

 

Alone at a Jing Mountain Pavilion

 

独 坐 敬 亭 山
众 鸟 高 飞 尽
孤 云 独 去 闲。
相 看 两 不 厌
只 有 敬 亭 山。
Du Zuo Jing Ting Shan

Zhong ji gao fei jin
Gu yun du qu xian.
Xiang kan liang bu an
Zhi you jing ting shan.

 

Alone at a Jing MountainPavilion

Many birds fly as high as possible
Solitary cloud lonely, it departs into idleness.
We two are looking at each other without satisfaction
Only have this Mt. Jing pavilion.

 

Notes:

Mt. Jing: A chain of mountains in Hubei Province
