登 江 中 孤 屿 话 白 云 先 生
悠 悠 清 江 水
水 落 沙 屿 出。
回 潭 石 下 深
绿 筱 岸 边 密。
鮫 人 潜 不 见
渔 父 歌 自 逸。
忆 与 君 别 时
泛 舟 如 昨 日。
夕 阳 开 返 照
中 坐 兴 非 一。
南 望 鹿 门 山
归 来 恨 如 失。

Walk on a Solitary Mid-River Islet, Talking With Teacher Yun
River waters clear and far-reaching
Small islet emerges when the water level drops.
Yet still have one deep, rocky pool
Along the riverbanks, dense green bamboo.
Mythological fish people lurk below unseen
In solitude, old fishermen sing to themselves.
Recall together with you, our time of parting
Last time here, the boat could float over this islet.
Setting sun glow reflects everywhere
Mid-island, not just one thing or feeling.
Gaze into the distance, to the south is Mt. Lumen
Return home, regret for things lost.
Notes:
Mt. Lumen: Also known as Deer Gate mountain.
