清溪泛舟
Clear Stream, Afloat in a Boat
旅人倚征棹 薄暮起劳歌 笑揽清溪月 清辉不厌多 |
Wanderers lean hard on their oars and, in the dusk, they sing a sailor's song. Laughing, I throw a rope around the moon in the river. In this clear radiance, even I'm not bored. |
-- 张旭
废话
Zhang Xu, with Henry Thoreau, is high on my list of people to take a canoe trip with. People like that take their pleasure seriously enough to get some good out of it. Note that both sing sailor's songs when working an oar. I, too, can sing.
