《清江引·钱塘怀古》 任昱
吴山越山山下水，
总是凄凉意。
江流今古愁，
山雨兴亡泪，
沙鸥笑人闲未得。
The Recall of Qiantang River in the Past
to the tune of Prelude to the Limpid River
Ren Yu
In the Wu and Yue states mountains and waters that appear
And suggest a feeling so sad and drear,
The following rivers are the flow of grief present and past,
The rain over mountains is but the tears for the state outcast.
Only gulls free, laughing at men fully occupied with a life overcast.
