Inscribe The Old Houses Of My Hometown Poem by Luo Zhihai

题故乡老屋

野雀何年侵故宅
夕阳几度补残窗
檐前破瓦遭霪雨
壁上枯柴堵灶堂

Inscribe The Old Houses Of My Hometown

What year did the wild sparrows
encroach my old houses
A few times the setting sun
repaired the dilapidated windows

Before the eaves the broken tiles
suffered excessive rain
Withered wood on the wall
blocked the stove

Note: first and second sentences by Zeng Xiangjia.
Third and fourth sentences by Chen Xuankui.
