Original text:
A dead vine and an old tree crow, a small bridge and a flowing family, an ancient road and a thin horse.
when the sun sets, heartbroken people are far away.
At dusk, a group of crows landed on an old tree with withered vines, giving out a piercing cry. Under the small bridge, the running water rattled, and the smoke from the farmhouse beside the small bridge curled up. A thin horse on the ancient road struggled against the west wind. The setting sun gradually lost its luster and set from the west. In the cold night, only lonely travelers wander in distant places.
