Early Evening in a Small Boat
小 舟 晚 兴
蒻 篷 旧 屋 雨 声 干
芦 (fei) 新 檐 暖 日 眠。
枕 底 席 边 俱 绿 水
脚 根 头 上 两 青 天。
Xiao Zhou Wan Xing
Ruo peng jiu wu yu sheng gan
Lu fei xin yan nuan ri mian.
Zhen di xi bian ju lu shui
Jiao hen tou shang liang qing tian.
Early Evening in a Small Boat
Clumps of young rushes form an old lean-to roof, occasional raindrop sounds
Sleep in the warm sun below fresh bamboo and reed eaves.
Pillowed seat on the floor, green river water all around me
Head nods up and down, one blue sky above, and one down below.
Notes:
The ancient and arcane character for (fei) in line two was not found inside my version of Windows.
