The Hometown Poem by Luo Zhihai

故園

壕畔寬橋榕樹蓋
少年童趣祖居留
雕簷畫棟花窗戶
刻獸魚池石閣樓
常飲冽泉懷憶念
閑嬉遊鯉影還浮
而今廣廈新雲疊
唯舊清溪碧水流


The Hometown

The wide bridge of the moat
shadow of the banyan covers
A juvenile's childhood
stays in the former residence

Engraving eaves and painting pillar
the ornamental engraving windows
The fish pool engraved animals
the stone attics

The clear spring I often drank
with many nostalgic memories
The swimming carps leisurely playing
shadows floating

Now the large houses
overlapping like the new clouds
The clear stream still
the blue water flowing
