Early Departure on Mount Shang
by Wen Tingyun
translated by Xu Yuanchong
At dawn I rise and my cab bells begin
To ring, but in thoughts of home I am lost.
The cock crows as the moon sets over thatched inn;
Footprints are left on wood bridge paved with frost.
The mountain path is covered with oak leaves;
The post house bright with blooming orange trees.
The dream of my homeland still haunts and grieves
With mallards playing on the pool with geese.
商山早行
[唐]温庭筠
晨起动征铎，客行悲故乡。
鸡声茅店月，人迹板桥霜。
槲叶落山路，枳花明驿墙。
因思杜陵梦，凫雁满回塘。
