Chai Lu

(Tang) Wang Wei

No one can be seen in the silent valley, only the voice is heard.

The shadow of the sunset shone into the depths of the forest, and the scenery on the moss was pleasant.

Translation of works

There is no one in the silent valley,

I can only hear voices.

The afterglow of the sunset reflected into the depths of the forest,

The scenery on the moss is very pleasant.
