Night Mooring On Huangpu

Wang Zhideng 1535-1612 Waves lap the shores of Old Shanghai, Fog wrapped city, willows obscured in mist. Old moon not yet set, as fish tickle nets, Fishermen launch their boats in the flood tide.

Huángpǔ Yèbó

Huāngpǔtān tóu shuǐ pāi tiān, Hán chéng rú wù liǔ rú yān. Yuè chén wèi chén yú chùwǎng, Cháo lái yù lái rén fàng chuán.

Notes: This poem read by Amber Nee, attorney, in Shanghai. The Huangpu is the river running through Shanghai, separating Old Shanghai, or Puxi, from New Shanghai, or Pudong.
