1. "The Envoy to the Fortress" Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei
The bicycle wanted to ask about the side, but the country passed by Juyan. Zheng Peng left Hansai, returned to Yan and entered Hutian.
The desert is solitary and the smoke is straight, and the sun is setting over the long river. When Xiao Guan is waiting to ride, he will always protect Yan Ran.
Translation: I wanted to go to the border by bicycle to express condolences, but the vassal country I passed through had already passed Juyan. Thousands of miles of flying pods have also floated out of Hansai, and the wild geese returning to the north are soaring in the sky.
The solitary smoke rises straight up in the vast desert, and the setting sun is perfect on the endless Yellow River. Go to Xiaoguan and meet the scouting knight, who tells me that the Protector is already in Yanran.
2. "Looking at Tianmen Mountain" Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
Tianmen interrupts the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flows eastwards to this point.
The green mountains on both sides of the strait stand out from each other, and the lone sail comes from the sun.
Translation: The Yangtze River is like a giant ax splitting open the majestic Tianmen Peak, and the green river water flows eastward and swirls here. The beautiful scenery of the green mountains on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is indistinguishable, and you can see a solitary boat coming from the horizon.
3. "Evening View from the East Tower of Xianyang City/West Tower of Xianyang City" Tang Dynasty: Xu Hun
As soon as you go up to the high city, you will feel sad for thousands of miles, and the willows will look like Tingzhou. The clouds in the stream are beginning to rise, the sun is sinking into the pavilion, and the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is filling the building.
The green Qin Garden is under the birds at dusk, the cicadas are chirping and the leaves are yellow in the Han Palace in autumn. Pedestrians should not ask about what happened in those days. The water from the Wei River comes from the east of my homeland.
Translation: Nostalgia arises spontaneously when I climb a high-rise building thousands of miles away. In my eyes, the water plants and willows are like Tingzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. The clouds in the stream rise and the red sun sets outside the temple. Before the mountain rain arrives, the strong wind blows all over the Xianyang Tower. Birds are flying in the overgrown garden at dusk, and cicadas are chirping on the trees covered with dead leaves in late autumn. Passers-by should not ask about the past. Only the Wei River flows eastward as always.
4. "Summer, Drought and Bitter Heat" Song Dynasty: Wang Ling
The breeze was unable to kill the heat, and the setting sun flew up the mountain with its wings. People are already afraid of the rivers and seas drying up, but God will not hesitate to dry them up.
As high as Kunlun there is snow, and as far away as Penglai it is often cold. If you can't carry the world with you, why bother to swim around it?
Translation: The breeze has no power to drive away the heat of summer, and the sun setting in the west seems to have wings, hovering on the top of the mountain, refusing to descend. Everyone is worried that the rivers, lakes and seas will dry up in such a drought. Isn't God afraid that Geng Geng Yinhe will be dried up? The high Kunlun Mountains have snow that never melts all year round, and the distant Penglai Island has a coolness that never disappears. I can't take everyone in the world to escape the summer heat, so how can I bear to go there alone and have fun?
5. "Miscellaneous Poems in the Mountains" Northern and Southern Dynasties: Wu Jun
I see smoke coming from the mountains, and I glimpse the setting sun in the bamboos.
Birds fly to the eaves, and clouds come out of the window.
Translation: The place where the mountain meets the sky is surrounded by clouds and smoke, and the sunset is shining through the gaps in the bamboo forest. Birds flew happily to the eaves, and white clouds floated gently from the window.
