Thinking of Past Travels: Three Poems No. 1
念 昔 游
(1)
十 载 飘 然 绳 检 外
樽 前 自 献 自 为 酬。
秋 山 春 雨 闲 吟 处
倚 遍 江 南 寺 寺 楼。
Nian Xi You

Shi zai piao ran feng jian wai
Zun qian zi xian zi wei chou.
Qiu shan chun yu xian yin chu
Yi bian jiang nan si si lou.
Thinking of Past Travels: Three Poems No. 1
Ten years floated by in the air, outside where imperial protocols reside
Naturally in front of a wine vessel, can make toasts by myself.
Live among autumn mountains and spring rains, leisurely chanting
Rely on many temples and towers of Jiangnan.
Notes:
Jiangnan: Literally means south of the river. An area south of the mouth of the Changjiang (Yangzi River). The modern day province of Zhejiang.
