Drying Out the Clothes
晒 衣
亭 午 晒 衣 哺 褶 衣
柳 箱 布 幞 自 携 归。
妻 孥 相 笑 还 相 问:
亦 脚 苍 斗 更 阿 谁.
Shai Yi
Ting wu shai yi bu zhe yi
Liu xiang bu fu zi xie gui.
Qi nu xiang xiao huan xiang wen:
Ci jiao cang dou geng e shei.
Drying Out the Clothes
Afternoon clothes drying out under a pavilion, by dusk they remain wrinkled
Arrange them inside a willow-branch basket to go back home.
Wives and daughters laugh at me, smile at each other and ask:
Who is this white-haired man bare footed in crude sandals.
