Looking down, I saw the sycamore tree alone in the courtyard, and the deep courtyard was shrouded in the cold and desolate autumn colors.
How much sorrow can you have? Just like a river of spring water flowing eastward. Li Yu of the Five Dynasties, "The Poppy: When Will the Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon Come"
The translation asks me how much sadness I have in my heart, just like the endless spring water rolling eastward.
