王维·《过感化寺昙兴上人山院》英译

暮持筇竹杖，相待虎溪头。<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

催客闻山响，归房逐水流。

野花藂发好，谷鸟一声幽。

夜坐空林寂，松风直似秋。

Visiting Venerable Buddhist Monk Tan Xing at the Ganhua Temple

When sunset glowed he walked on a bamboo staff

As far as Tiger Brook to meet his guest.

The tiger roared a send-off but made him laugh,

He then chased water to his holy nest.

Wild flowers clustered to display their charm,

A chirp or two relieved the valley’s calm.

His sitting brought the night and the wood to a still

Where the wind in hushing felt an autumnal chill.
