A Song at Wei-ch'eng
Translated by Witter Bynner and Kiang Kang-hu (1929) · From The Jade Mountain (1929)
Relationships
A morning-rain has settled the dust in Wei-ch'eng;
Willows are green again in the tavern dooryard. . . .
Wait till we empty one more cup —
West of Yang Gate there'll be no old friends.
