Relationships
Where Are They?
Translated by Herbert A. Giles (1898) · From Chinese Poetry in English Verse (1898)
Relationships
Alone I mount to the kiosque which stands on the river-bank, and sigh,
While the moonbeams dance on the tops of the waves where the waters touch the sky;
For the lovely scene is to last year's scene as like as like can be.
All but the friends, the much-loved friends, who gazed at the moon with me.
