Yellow Crane Tower
Cui Hao
黄鹤楼
崔颢 〔唐代〕
昔人已乘黄鹤去，此地空余黄鹤楼。
黄鹤一去不复返，白云千载空悠悠。
晴川历历汉阳树，芳草萋萋鹦鹉洲。
日暮乡关何处是？烟波江上使人愁。
| Past person already gone yellow crane away Here only remain yellow crane tower Yellow crane once gone not return White cloud 1000 years sky leisuredly Clear river clear Hanyang tree Fragrant grass parrot islet Day dusk homeland pass what place be Mist water river on become person sorrow |
The yellow crane has long since gone away, All that here remains is yellow crane tower. The yellow crane once gone does not return, White clouds drift slowly for a thousand years. The river is clear in Hanyang by the trees, And fragrant grass grows thick on parrot isle. In this dusk, I don’t know where my homeland lies, The river’s mist-covered waters bring me sorrow. |
