Climb Feilai Peak

Song Dynasty Wang Anshi

Feilai Mountain Qianxun Pagoda, hear the rooster crow and see the sun rise.

Don’t be afraid of the floating clouds covering your eyes, because you are at the highest level.

Translation: Climb the tall tower at the top of Feilai Peak. I heard that you can see the rising sun from here every day when the rooster crows.

I am not afraid of layers of clouds blocking my distant view, just because I am standing on the highest level of Feilai Peak.

In the summer of 1050 AD (the second year of Emperor Renzong’s reign in the Song Dynasty), Wang Anshi wrote this poem when he returned to his hometown in Linchuan, Jiangxi Province and passed through Hangzhou after serving as magistrate of Yin County, Zhejiang Province. At this time, Wang Anshi was only thirty years old, in his prime, full of energy, and ambitious for reform, so he took advantage of climbing Feilai Peak to express his thoughts and broad feelings. This poem reflects the poet's courageous and fearless enterprising spirit in order to realize his political ambitions.
