乌 夜 啼
黄 云 城 边 乌 欲 栖
归 飞 哑 哑 枝 上 啼。
机 中 织 锦 秦 川 女
碧 沙 如 烟 隔 窗 语。
停 梭 怅 然 忆 远 人
独 宿 孤 房 泪 如 雨。

Dark Evening Crows Caw
Yellow clouds, crows perched along the city walls
Caw to each other flying back to their branches.
Think of the Qin River lady who weaved her brocade
Bluish-green gauze like a mist partition between pictures and words.
Stops her loom, disappointed her man so far away
Throughout the night, alone in the house, tears fall like rain.
Notes:
Qin River: Tributary to the Yellow River in southeastern Shanxi Province.
