The Original Text and Translation of Water Mirror Notes on Yishui

The original text and translation of Water Mirror Zhu Yishui are as follows:

Yishui flows through the northern part of Yidu and flows eastward into the great river, which is similar to water mirror and Wei water (there is a comparison between water mirror and Wei water: some people interpret it as "compared with water mirror and Wei water", which is probably inappropriate. You have to consider how to explain yourself. )

Others call it Washan Beiliu. Yishui passes through the Rocky Mountains, and there is no embankment at all.

The water is clear and empty, reflecting light. Looking down at the fish is like flying in the air. There are many five-color stones in shallow places. In winter and summer, white waves splash, and there are many lush trees and empty caves by the water. Listening to these in the quiet night, there is often the sound of Qingyuan.

Many birds are flying, and the sad songs complement each other. Those who patrol in the "decadent waves" don't feel tired and forget to go back. ("Etymology * Page": "Falling flowers and waves: flowing water and waves rush down." Falling waves are falling waves. )。

Yishui to Yidu north ①, east into the river ②, the ratio of Beijing to Weifang ③. Also known as Washan ④ Beixi. All the water passes through the Rocky Mountains, but there is no embankment. Its water reflects white, overlooking the fish, such as taking the air. There are many colored stones in the shallows, and hormones fly clear in winter and summer. Listening in the quiet night, there will always be ringing bells, and Qi Fei, a hundred birds, groans together. The surfer was tired and forgot to return.
