"Jiangchengzi·Hunting in Mizhou"
Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
I am talking about being a teenager. The left hand holds the yellow, the right holds the blue sky. Brocade hats and mink fur coats, thousands of cavalry rolling around Pinggang. In order to repay Qingcheng, he followed the prefect, shot tigers himself, and watched Sun Lang.
The wine is in full swing and the chest is still open. It doesn't matter if there's a little frost on the temples. In the cloud of holding the knot, when will Feng Tang be dispatched? He can hold the eagle bow like the full moon, look northwest, and shoot at the wolf.
Translation:
Let me express the arrogance of the young man, holding a yellow dog in his left hand and holding a goshawk in his right hand. The accompanying soldiers wore gorgeous hats and clothes made of mink fur, and the mighty army swept through the flat hills like a strong wind. In order to repay the people of the whole city for following me, I must shoot a tiger like Sun Quan and show it to everyone.
When I drink until I am happy, my mind becomes more open and my courage becomes more assertive. Even if my hair is slightly white, what does it matter? When will the imperial court send someone with a talisman to come to Mizhou to pardon my sins? At that time, I will draw my bow and arrow so that it takes on the shape of a full moon, aim at the northwest, and shoot down the Sirius star that represents Xixia.
