Nature
Peach-Blossom River
Translated by Witter Bynner and Kiang Kang-hu (1929) · From The Jade Mountain (1929)
Nature
A bridge flies away through a wild mist,
Yet here are the rocks and the fisherman’s boat.
Oh, if only this river of floating peach-petals
Might lead me at last to the mythical cave!
