Autumn Meditations (2)

Kui prefecture lonely wall set sun slant Every rely Southern Dipper gaze capital city Hear ape real fall three sound tear Sent on mission vain follow eight month raft Picture ministry incense stove apart hidden pillow Mountain tower white battlements hide sad reed whistle Ask look stone on creeper moon Already reflect islet before rushes reeds flowers
Over Kuizhou's lonely wall, the setting sun slants, Every day I follow the Plough to look to the capital city. I hear an ape; the third call really makes tears fall, Undertaking a mission, in vain I follow the eighth month raft. The muralled ministry's incense stove is far from my hidden pillow, The mountain tower's white battlements hide the sad reed flutes. Just look at the moonlight on the creepers that cover the stones, Already in front of the islet, the rushes and reed flowers shine!
