Downstream From Jing Xian, Over the Rough Shoals of the Ling Yang River
下 泾 县 陵 阳 溪 至 涩 滩
涩 滩 鸣 嘈 嘈
两 山 足 猿 猱。 白 波 若 卷 雪
侧 石 不 容 舟。 渔 人 与 舟 人
撑 折 万张篙。
Xia Jing Xian Ling Yang Xi Zhi Se Tan
Se tan ming cao cao
Liang shan zu yuan nao. Bai bo ruo juan xue
Ce shi bu rong zhou. Yu ren yu zhou ren
Cheng she wan zhang gao.
Downstream From Jing Xian, Over the Rough Shoals of the
Ling Yang River
Rough shoals, very noisy sounds
Apes and monkey in between two mountain foothills. White waves like scrolls of snow drifts
Leaning boulders, small boats not easy to pass. Fishermen associate with boatmen
Thousands of bamboo punt poles break and snap.
Notes:
Jingxian: Inside Anhui Province
Lingyang River: Part of the Pearl River watershed in Guangdong Province.
