The original translation of Looking at the Sea

See the boundless ocean

Author: Cao Cao? (Korean)

On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea.

The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea.

Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging.

The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean.

Journey to the sun and the moon, if you go out.

Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise.

I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.

How vast the sea is, and the mountain island stands high on the seaside.

Trees and herbs flourish.

The autumn wind blows the trees and makes a sad sound, and the sea is rough.

The Milky Way galaxy is full of stars, as if they were born from this vast ocean.

I am very happy, so I use this poem to express my inner ambition.
