Heng River Lyrics: Six Poems: No. 1
People say that the Heng River is very good
I think it is very dangerous.
For several days one wind blows away the mountains
White waves as tall as the Waguan pavilion.
Notes:
Heng River: Tributary to the Changjiang (Yangzi River) in Yunnan Province.
Waguan Pavilion: Famous scenic spot in the modern city of Nanjing. Li wrote several famous poems here.
