Original text:
The wind is fast and high, the ape cries sadly, and the birds are circling in the white sand. The endless trees are rustling leaves, and the Yangtze River is rolling unpredictably. ?
Li in the sad autumn scenery, a wanderer all the year round, lives alone on the high platform in today's illness. ? After all the hardships and hatred, the white hair is full, and the wine glasses are damaged.
Translation:
It is very sad that there are birds hovering on the river with clear water and white sand. The endless trees are rustling leaves, and the Yangtze River is rolling in and rushing.
Sad to autumn, I feel that Wan Li has been wandering all the year round and has been sick all his life. Today, he is alone on the high platform. After a lot of hardships, white hair is full of temples, and the cup is hanging.
