Talking from Li Bai's Looking at Tianmen Mountain
Original text:
Tianmen breaks the Chu River, and Higashi Shimizu flows.
The green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite, and the sails come alone.

Poetry translation
The majestic Tianmen Mountain is divided into two by the Yangtze River, where the Qingjiang River flows eastward.
The green hills on both sides of the strait stand opposite each other, and a solitary boat floats rapidly from the sun.
