Wang Wei: Gold Bamboo Mountain Ridge
斤竹岭
檀 奕 映 空 曲
青 翠 漾 涟 漪。
暗 入 商 山 路
樵 人 不 可 知。

Tan yi ying kong qu
Qing cui yang lian yi
An ru shang shan lu
Qiao ren bu ke zhi.
Gold Bamboo Mountain Ridge
Elegant bamboo contrasts with the remote clearing along a winding pathway
Emerald green waves of ripples upon ripples.
Trails leading into Mt. Shang are hidden
Not even the wood gatherers know of them.
