Li Bai: Alas, My White Hair Is Thirty Thousand Feet Long! 李白 白髮三千丈，缘愁似箇長。 Poem by Frank Yue

Li Bai: Alas, My White Hair Is Thirty Thousand Feet Long! 李白 白髮三千丈，缘愁似箇長。

The Qiu Pu Song No.15 (of 17)
- Li Bai (701-762)
- Translated by Frank C Yue

Alas, my white hair is thirty thousand feet long!
As the sorrows of separation -- it's as strong.
Inside the clear mirror, I look to find out why;
From where the colour of Autumn-frost my hair's dyed?


【秋浦歌】其十五 李白

白髮三千丈，
缘愁似箇長。
不知明鏡裏，
何處得秋霜。
