1. "Mountain Travel" - Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty
Far up the Hanshan Mountain, the stone path is slanted, and there are people living in the white clouds.
I park my car and sit in the maple forest at night, the leaves are as red as the flowers in February due to frost.
Translation: The rocky path is winding and sloping far up to the top of the mountain, where a few households are faintly visible where the white clouds grow. I stopped the carriage just because I loved the evening view of the maple forest. The frost-stained maple leaves were better than the bright February flowers.
2. "Inscription on the West Forest Wall" - Su Shi of the Song Dynasty
Viewed horizontally, it is a ridge and a peak on the side, with different heights near and far.
I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because I am in this mountain.
Translation: Looking at Mount Lushan from the front and side, the mountains are rolling and the peaks are towering. When you look at Mount Lushan from a distance, from near, from a high place, or from a low place, you will see that Mount Lushan has various different appearances. The reason why I can't recognize the true face of Lushan Mountain is because I am in Lushan Mountain.
3. "Looking at Tianmen Mountain" - Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty
Tianmen interrupts the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flows eastward here.
The green mountains on both sides of the strait face each other, and the lone sail is coming from the sun.
Translation: The Yangtze River is like a giant ax splitting open the Tianmen Peak, and the green water flows eastward without turning around. 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.
4. "Looking at the Dongting" - Liu Yuxi of the Tang Dynasty
The lake and the moon are in harmony, and there is no windshield on the lake surface that has not been polished.
Looking at the green mountains and rivers of Dongting in the distance, there is a green snail in the silver plate.
Translation: The wind is calm and the waves are calm, the moonlight and the color of the water blend together, and the lake surface is like a bronze mirror that does not need to be polished, smooth and bright. Looking at Dongting from a distance, Dongting Mountain with green mountains, green water and lush trees stands in the white light of Dongting Lake, like a green snail in a silver plate.
5. "Sitting Alone on Jingting Mountain" - Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty
All the birds are flying high, and the lonely cloud is alone.
I never get tired of seeing each other, only Jingting Mountain.
Translation: The birds are flying high without a trace, and the lone cloud is free and leisurely. You look at me, I look at you, we don’t hate each other, it’s just me and the Jingting Mountain in front of me.
