黃鶴樓 崔顥 (with English Translation)

昔人已乘黃鶴去， 此地空餘黃鶴樓。

黃鶴一去不復返， 白雲千載空悠悠。

晴川歷歷漢陽樹， 芳草萋萋鸚鵡洲。

日暮鄉關何處是？ 煙波江上使人愁。



唐詩英譯



THE YELLOW CRANE TERRACE－－Cui Hao





Where long ago a yellow crane bore a sage to heaven,

Nothing is left now but the Yellow Crane Terrace.

The yellow crane never revisited earth,

And white clouds are flying without him for ever.

...Every tree in Hanyang becomes clear in the water,

And Parrot Island is a nest of sweet grasses;

But I look toward home, and twilight grows dark

With a mist of grief on the river waves.
