元 和 十 二 年，淮 寇 未 平，诏 停 岁 仗，愤 然 有 感，率 尔 成 章
闻 停 岁 仗 轸 皇 情
应 为 淮 西 寇 未 平。
不 分 气 从 歌 里 发
无 明 心 向 酒 中 生。
愚 计 忽 思 飞 短 檄
狂 心 便 欲 请 长 缨。
从 来 妄 动 多 如 此
自 笑 何 曾 得 事 成。

In the Year 817, Huai River Insurgents Not Peaceful, By Imperial Edict There Will Be No End-of-the-Year Celebrations, Indignant I am Stranded Here
Sad to have heard that end-of-the-year celebrations suspended by the emperor
Probably made because the insurgents west of the Huai River not yet suppressed.
Such a sour atmosphere, need to express in song these emotions
Cannot understand why my heart-mind so partial to wine-influenced expression.
Suddenly I think I should write a plan to reduce the potential for conflict
My wild heart-mind so angry I could request to join the call to arms.
But I always engage in reckless actions
Naturally smile when I realize I am not up to these violent tasks.
Notes:
Huai River: River from west to east in between the Yellow River and the Changjiang.
