同 德 寺 阁 集 眺
芳 节 欲 云 晏
游 遨 乐 相 从。
高 阁 照 丹 霞
飗 飗 含 远 风。
寂 寥 氛 氲 廓
超 忽 神 虑 空。
旭 日 霁 皇 州
岧 峣 见 两 宫。
嵩 少 多 秀 色
群 山 莫 与 崇。
三 川 浩 东 注
廛 涧 亦 来 同。
阴 阳 降 大 和
宇 宙 得 其 中。
舟 车 满 川 陆
四 国 靡 不 通。
旧 堵 今 已 葺
庶 甿 亦 已 丰。
周 览 思 自 奋
行 当 遇 时 邕。

Tongde Temple Pavilion, Composite of Views While Looking Into the Distance From a High Place
Almost the season of sweet aromas, clouds have lost their light
Happy to travel about with each other.
Tall pavilion, rosy red clouds of dawn
Rustling winds come from afar.
All around it is quiet within a moist atmosphere
Suddenly a spirit goes beyond to ponder emptiness.
Brilliant rising sun clear after rainfall, allows one to see all the way to Huangzhou
Can see lofty and high mountains that are pretty and delicate.
This range of mountains has nothing to hide
Three vast rivers merge to the east of here.
The Chan and Jian rivers also flow into this area
This scenery is a gift of peace and harmony.
Whole universe within the circular hub
Rivers full of boats, roads full of carriages.
Surrounding land and water all interconnected
Old block walls have now been fixed.
Commoners and oxen drivers also live in plenty
Looking around, think of exerting myself more
During the golden years should get up and meet the day.
Notes:
Huangzhou: Ancient name for the current city of Hangzhou.
Chan and Jian Rivers: They flow through and around the ancient capital city of Luoyang.
