Chanting at Dusk on the Riverbank
Bai Juyi 772—846

The setting sun sheds a streak of light across the water,
Turning half of the river green, the other half red.
Lovely is the third night of the Ninth Moon:
The dewdrops are like pearls, the moon, like a bow.
 
Mù Jiāng Yín
Bái Jūyì 772—846

Yí dào cán yáng pū shuǐ zhōng,
Bàn jiāng sèsè bàn jiāng hóng.
Kělián jiǔyuè chūsān yè,
Lù sì zhēnzhū yuè sì gōng.
