江南月，清夜满西楼。云落开时冰吐鉴，浪花深处玉沈钩。圆缺几时休。

星汉迥，风露入新秋。丹桂不知摇落恨，素娥应信别离愁。天上共悠悠。

Watching the Southern Shore

Wang Qi

The Southern moon bright
Fills the western tower on a clear night.
The clouds throw out a mirror of ice;
Deep in the waves sinks a hook of jade so nice.
When will it wax and wane no more?

The River of Stars has no shore;
The breeze and dew bring an autumn new.
The laurel tree knows not the grief of fallen leaves;
The Moon Goddess should believe parting grieves.
She shares human woe as of yore.

(许渊冲、许明译)
