Love

A Message

by Chang Pi 10th century AD

Translated by Witter Bynner and Kiang Kang-hu (1929) · From The Jade Mountain (1929)

Love

I go in a dream to the house of Hsieh —
Through a zigzag porch with arching rails
To a court where the spring moon lights for ever
Phantom flowers and a single figure.
