Parting: Bai Juyi
In late autumn, the words leave, and the cold wind blows the leaves all over the stream.
I was so generous in my chest that I turned around and burst into tears.
The green hills don't change into flowing water, but the bright moon is still thin.
Forever and ever, there is an end, but this endless sadness is endless.
Translation:
Say goodbye in late autumn, the cold wind blows and the stream is full of fallen leaves.
I was filled with emotion in my chest and turned to say something. My clothes were wet with tears.
The castle peak does not change, the water keeps flowing, the moon remains the same, and the stars are becoming scarce.
Things that last forever sometimes disappear, but this hatred is eternal.
