Wang Wei: Lakeside Pavilion

Lakeside Pavilion

临 湖 亭
轻 舸 迎 上 客
悠 悠 湖 上 来。
当 轩 对 樽 酒
四 面 芙 蓉 开。
Lin Hu Ting

Qing ge ying shang ke
You you hu shang lai.                                                                                                            Dang xuan dui zun jiu
Si mian fu rong kai.

 

Lakeside Pavilion

A light houseboat goes to welcome the esteemed visitor
Arriving at this very remote lake.                                                                              Veranda windows facing one another
Clinking wine cup to wine cup, on all four sides blooming hibiscus flowers.
