下終南山過斛斯山人宿置酒

李白

暮從碧山下， 山月隨人歸;

卻顧所來徑， 蒼蒼橫翠微。

相攜及田家， 童稚開荊扉;

綠竹入幽徑， 青蘿拂行衣。

歡言得所憩， 美酒聊共揮;

長歌吟松風， 曲盡河星稀。

我醉君復樂， 陶然共忘機。

DOWN ZHONGNAN MOUNTAIN

TO THE KIND PILLOW AND BOWL OF HUSI

Li Bai

Down the blue mountain in the evening,

Moonlight was my homeward escort.

Looking back, I saw my path

Lie in levels of deep shadow....

I was passing the farm-house of a friend,

When his children called from a gate of thorn

And led me twining through jade bamboos

Where green vines caught and held my clothes.

And I was glad of a chance to rest

And glad of a chance to drink with my friend....

We sang to the tune of the wind in the pines;

And we finished our songs as the stars went down,

When, I being drunk and my friend more than happy,

Between us we forgot the world.
