日暮
牛羊下來久
各己閉柴門
風月自清夜
江山非故園
石泉流暗壁
草露滴秋根
頭白燈明裏
何須花燼繁 rì mù

hé xū huā jìn fán Cow sheep move down slowly
Each self shut wicker door
Wind moon from clear night
River hill not homeland
Stone spring flow dark cliff
Grass dew drip autumn root
head white lamp brightness inside
What need flower embers flourish The cows and sheep are moving slowly down,
Each villager has shut his wicker gate.
The wind and moon disturb the clear night,
This landscape of rivers and hills is not my homeland.
A spring flows from the stones of a darkening cliff,
The autumn dew drips on the grass's roots.
My white head is within the brightness of the lamp,
What need for the flower to flourish so?
