Cheng Hao 1032-1085

Traveling north heading south stopping where they can
Duckweed blooms depart Chu waterways by fall
A man of the Way doesn't mourn autumn
Let the evening hills share each other's sorrow
 
Tí Huáinánsì
Chéng Hào 1032-1085

Nán qù běi lái xiū biàn xiū,
Bái pín chuī jìn Chǔ jiāng qiū.
Dàoren bú shì bēi qiū kè,
Yí rèn wǎn shān xiāng duì chóu.
