How Many Autumns?

Hánshān (Táng) Jiǔ zhù Hánshān fán jǐ qiū? Dú yín gēqú juéwú... Jī cān yī lì qiētuó yào, Xīndì diào zhī yǐ shítōu.

Jǐ Qiū?

Hanshan (Tang) I've lived at Cold Mountain how many autumns. Alone I hum a song utterly without regret. Hungry I eat one grain of Immortal-medicine Mind solid and sharp leaning on a stone.
