Sitting Alone on Jingting Mountain

Li Bai 699-762 Flocks of birds disappear in the distance Lone clounds wander away Who never tires of my company Only Jingting Mountain

Dú Zuò Jìngtíngshān

Lǐ Bái 699-762 Zhòng niǎo gāo fēi jìn， Gū yún dú qù xián. Xiāng kàn liǎng bú yàn， Zhǐ yǒu jìng tíng shān.

Notes: From the book Poems of the Masters, China's Classic Anthology of Tang and Song Dynasty verse. One of the best, if not "the best", books of general translations of Chinese poetry. Wonderfully detailed notes on each poem and all poems are displayed in the original Chinese. Translated by Red Pine, published by Copper Canyon Press.
