Plum Blossoms: Four-Line Poem
梅 花 绝 句
山 月 缟 中 庭
幽 人 酒 初 醒。
不 是 怯 清 寒
愁 踏 梅 花 影。
Mei Hua Jue Ju
Shan yue gao zhong ting
You ren jiu chu xing.
Bu shi qie qing han
Chou at mei hua ying.
Plum Blossoms: Four-Line Poem
Mountain moonlight white as silk in the center of my front courtyard
Auspicious recluses begin to sober up from the wine.
They do not fear or shy away from the clear and cold
Sorrows when they step upon the plum blossom shadows.
