The Jade Mountain/Bound Home to Mount Sung
BOUND HOME TO MOUNT SUNG
The limpid river, past its bushes
Running slowly as my chariot,
Becomes a fellow voyager
Returning home with the evening birds.
A ruined city-wall overtops an old ferry,
Autumn sunset floods the peaks.
. . . Far away, beside Mount Sung,
I shall close my door and be at peace.
Running slowly as my chariot,
Becomes a fellow voyager
Returning home with the evening birds.
A ruined city-wall overtops an old ferry,
Autumn sunset floods the peaks.
. . . Far away, beside Mount Sung,
I shall close my door and be at peace.
