《楓橋夜泊 和唐人韻兩首·其二》 敬安
白露橫江水接天,秋懷黯黯不成眠。
一身漂泊三千里,獨(dú)宿蘆花月滿船。
Moored at Maple Bridge
Ching An
Frost white across the river
waters reaching toward the sky.
All I'd hoped for's lost
in Autumn's darkening.
I cannot sleep, a man
adrift, a thousand miles
alone, among the reed flowers;
but the moonlight fills the boat.
