Untitled

1. Autumn green lotuses

And a calm lake stitched with clouds. A cassia boat sews the moistness. A song, a full cup of wine

Relieve the sorrow. How can a man's life be as before? When drunk I remember;

Then as now there were flowering branches,

Though now they blush above this old man's head. (Yuediao: Pinghuyue)

On the Birthday of Mrs. Li

1. The eyes enjoy a person at peace. Your bracelets and ornaments are graced with fragrance. The gem in the grotto shows its luster. Eight thousand springs! Mists announce this letter of long life,

I buy another cup of wine. You, goddess by the vast sea,

Watch in peace

The stirrings of the world's dust. See also
