Chinese Poetry

Excellent Chinese poems are as follows:

1. The Wind

(Tang) Li Peak

The highest peak of Li Peak

Unraveling the leaves of three autumns, the flowers of February can bloom.

Crossing the river with a thousand waves, entering the bamboo with ten thousand poles.

Translation: The wind can blow down the golden leaves of autumn and open the beautiful flowers of spring. The wind can blow over the river and create a thousand-foot wave, and the wind can blow into the bamboo forest and make ten thousand poles tilt.

2. "Winging the Willow"

(Tang) He Zhizhang

The jasper is made up into a tall tree, and ten thousand stripes hang down the green silk ribbon.

I don't know who cuts out the fine leaves, but the February spring breeze is like scissors.

Translation: The tall willow tree is full of tender green leaves, and the light hanging willow is like ten million green ribbons gently fluttering. I wonder who cut out these fine willow leaves? It is the February spring wind, which is like a magic scissors.

3. The Book of Even Returning to the Countryside

(Tang) He Zhizhang

The youngest leaves home and the oldest returns, and the accent of the countryside does not change as the hair on the temples deteriorates.

Children don't know each other when they see each other; they laugh and ask where the guests come from.

Translation: I left my hometown when I was young and returned home when I was old, and although my accent has not changed, the hair on my temples has thinned. When the children of my hometown saw me, none of them recognized me. They laughed and asked me: Where are you from? 

4. The Lyrics of Liangzhou

(Tang) Wang Zhilu

The Yellow River is far away between the white clouds, and a lone city is ten thousand feet high.

The Qiang flute has no need to complain about the willow, and the spring breeze does not pass through the Jade Gate.

Translation: The Yellow River seems to run from between the white clouds, and the Jade Gate Pass towers alone among the high mountains. Why do you play the mournful "Willow Song" with a Qiang flute to complain about the delayed arrival of the spring light, when the spring wind cannot blow around the Yumen Pass?

5. Climbing to the Stork Tower

(Tang) Wang Zhilu

The sun is still on the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea.

Wanting to see a thousand miles, I climbed one floor higher.

Translation: Standing on a high building, I could only see the setting sun slowly sinking down along with the mountains, and the mighty Yellow River rushing towards the sea. If you want to see the scenery thousands of miles away, you have to climb a higher floor.
