Ming Dynasty: Yang Shen
The Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away heroes.
Whether it is right and wrong or failure, it is empty now and has disappeared with the passage of time.
Castle Peak still exists, the sun still rises and the sunset still sets.
The white-haired hermit by the river has long been used to the changes of time.
I met an old friend and had a drink.
How many things in the past and how many times have been put into the conversation.
Translation:
As the Yangtze River rolls eastward, many heroes disappear like stormy waves.
Whether it is right or wrong, or success or failure (the success of ancient and modern heroes), it is nothing until now, and it has disappeared with the passage of time.
Green hills (mountains and rivers) still exist, and the sun still rises and sets.
The white-haired hermit by the river has long been used to the change of time.
It's rare to see old friends. Have a good drink.
Many things through the ages have been put into the punch line.
2. At Helen's cabin
Tang Dynasty: Wang Zhihuan
The sun sets slowly near the western hills, and the Yellow River flows into the East China Sea.
By going up one flight of stairs, look further.
Translation:
The sunset slowly sinks beside the western hills, and the Yellow River rushes to the East China Sea.
If you want to see the scenery of Wan Li, you must climb a higher tower.
3. Farewell friends at Jingmen Ferry
Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
Sail from Jingmen Ferry, and soon you will be with southerners.
At the end of the mountain range and the beginning of the plain, the river winds through the wilderness.
The moon rises like a mirror, and the sea clouds twinkle like palaces.
The water brings you the feeling of home and makes your boat travel 300 miles.
Translation:
Traveling by boat, passing by Jingmen, I came to Chu's hometown.
Castle Peak gradually disappears, and Ye Ping stretches as far as the eye can see. The Yangtze River surges and flows into the vast wasteland.
The moon reflects the river, just like flying a mirror tomorrow; Clouds rise and change endlessly, forming a mirage.
The water in my hometown is reluctant to part with me, and Wan Li sent me boating not far away.
