by Bai Juyi

translated by Xu Yuanchong

You stand by River Jialing,I by winding streams.

Though far apart, still we share the same bright moonbeams.

All night long I think of you and for you I pine, For I am not sure if you see the same moon shine.

Who knows when by waterside I'm longing for you, By nocturnal riverside you' re missing me too?

When I receive your poem,I regret today:

Why did I not send mine to you so far away?

江楼月

[唐]白居易

嘉陵江曲曲江池，明月虽同人别离。

一宵光景潜相忆，两地阴晴远不知。

谁料江边怀我夜，正当池畔望君时。

今朝共语方同悔，不解多情先寄诗。
