Mooring at Maple Bridge at Night
by Zhang Ji 张继 · 715 – 779
- Night
- Sleep
- Bells
月落乌啼霜满天The moon sets, crows call, frost fills the sky;
江枫渔火对愁眠river maples, fishing lights, and a man lying awake with grief.
姑苏城外寒山寺Outside Suzhou, Cold Mountain Temple —
夜半钟声到客船at midnight its bell reaches the traveller's boat.
