1. "Farewell to a Friend" by Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty
Green mountains cross Beiguo, and white water surrounds the east city.
This place is different, and I have traveled thousands of miles alone.
The wandering clouds are like a wandering child, and the setting sun is about old friends.
I waved my hand and went away, the horse roared.
Translation: Green mountains lie on the north side of the city wall, and sparkling water surrounds the east side of the city. Here we say goodbye to each other, and you are like a solitary tent, drifting in the wind, traveling thousands of miles away. The floating clouds are as unpredictable as wanderers, and the setting sun slowly sets down the mountain, seeming to be nostalgic. They waved goodbye frequently and left, and the horses neighed in farewell.
2. "Farewell/Farewell in the Mountains" by Wang Wei of the Tang Dynasty
Let's see each other off in the mountains, the sun will cover the wood door.
The spring grass will be green next year, will the king and grandson return?
Translation: After seeing off my friends in the deep mountains, the sunset closed the firewood gate. When the grass is green again next spring, my friend, can you return it?
3. "Farewell" by Lu Guimeng in the Tang Dynasty
The husband is not without tears, and he will not shed them during parting.
The stick and the sword are against the wine, and the shame is the face of a wanderer.
As soon as the viper stings the hand, the strong man's wrist will be freed.
My ambition is fame, so there is no point in saying farewell.
Translation: A real man doesn’t shed tears, but he just doesn’t want to shed tears when parting. Facing Li Jiu, he sang and waved his sword generously, looking like an ordinary wanderer with his face filled with sorrow about separation. Once a viper stings his wrist, the strong man will not hesitate to cut off his arm. Since you are determined to conquer the world and make great achievements, there is no need to sigh and complain when you say goodbye to the ordinary things at home.
4. "Farewell to the King on the Eleventh Journey to the South" by Liu Changqing of the Tang Dynasty
Looking at the king, the smoke and water are vast, and the towel is stained with tears while waving his hand.
The flying birds are nowhere to be seen, and the green mountains are empty to people.
The Yangtze River is sailing far away, and the setting sun is spring across the lakes.
Who can see that on Tingzhou, the white apples are full of lovesickness and sorrow.
Translation: Looking at your boat sailing towards the vast clouds, I wave goodbye frequently and wet my scarf with tears. You are like a flying bird who doesn't know where to go, leaving this piece of green mountain empty to passers-by. The vast river and the lone sail disappear far away, and you will appreciate the beauty of the five lakes under the setting sun. Who can see me standing on Tingzhou missing you, looking at Bai Ping with my heart filled with infinite sadness.
5. "A Gift to Wang Lun" by Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty
Li Bai was about to set off in a boat when he suddenly heard singing on the shore.
The water in Peach Blossom Pond is a thousand feet deep, not as deep as Wang Lun’s love for me.
Translation: Li Bai was about to leave in a boat when he suddenly heard the sound of singing from the shore. Even if the water in Peach Blossom Pond is a thousand feet deep, it can't compare with Wang Lun's sentiments for sending me off.
