East, West, South And North... Poem by Luo Zhihai

東西南北

東君坐殿，煙靄惜憐，綠柳垂紳鶯奏本
西子浣紗，雲霞眷顧，青蛙擊鼓月升堂
北海弄潮，盤旋鷗燕，憑欄醉雨心花怒
南山賞菊，搖曳柏松，把酒吟風詩意狂

East, West, South And North

East King sat in the Palace
misty pitied him
green willow was a courtier
and warbler submitted a memorial

Xizi Lake washed scarfs
clouds favored her
frog beat drum and moon held court trial

In North China Sea I paddled tides
gulls and swallows hovered
leant against the railing
my heart flowers were in full bloom

In South Mountain I enjoyed chrysanthemums
cypresses and pines swayed
drank wine and chanted wind
my crazy poetic mood
