After Getting Drunk, Accompany Shi Lang Traveling to Dongting: Three Poems: No. 3

 

陪 侍 郎 叔 游 洞 庭 醉 后: 三 首
划 却 君 山 好
平 铺 湘 水 流。
巴 陵 无 限 酒
醉 杀 洞 庭 秋。
Pei Shi Lang Shu You Dong Ting Zhui Hou: San Shou

(3)

Hua que jun shan hao
Ping pu xiang shui liu
Ba ling wu xian jiu
Zui sha dong ting qiu.

 

After Getting Drunk, Accompany Shi Lang Traveling to Dongting: Three Poems: No. 3

Removing to an inside lake island would be fine
Wide and level elevation so the Xiang River water flows easily.
The regions water without limit like our wine
Autumn trees around Dongting Lake would turn yellow and drunk.

 

Notes:

Xiang River:  Large tributary to the Changjiang in Henan Province. An important part of the Dongting Lake drainage system.
