驛外斷橋邊
寂寞開無主
己是黃昏獨自愁
更著風和雨
無意苦爭春
一任羣芳妒
零落成泥碾作塵
只有香如故
Near the broken bridge outside the fortress, I am lonely and dis-oriented. It is dusk and I am worried alone, especially when the wind and rain start to blow. I do not intend to contest for the glory of Spring. I would rather be alone and envied by other excellent people. I would fall to become earth and be pressed to dust. My glory will be same as before.
