The following is the full text and its translation:
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.
Translation:
The wind is blowing hard, the sky is high, and the cry of apes resounds through the sky.
The water is clear, the beach is white, and birds fly back in the air.
Endless fallen leaves fall dismally,
The mighty momentum of the Yangtze River is rolling forward.
