王維
奉和聖製從蓬萊向興慶閣道中留春雨中春望之作應制
渭水自縈秦塞曲， 黃山舊遶漢宮斜。
鑾輿迥出千門柳， 閣道迴看上苑花。
雲裡帝城雙鳳闕， 雨中春樹萬人家。
為乘陽氣行時令， 不是宸遊玩物華。

Wang Wei
LOOKING DOWN IN A SPRING-RAIN ON THE COURSE
FROM FAIRY-MOUNTAIN PALACE TO THE PAVILION OF
INCREASE HARMONIZING THE EMPEROR’S POEM
Round a turn of the Qin Fortress winds the Wei River,
And Yellow Mountain foot-hills enclose the Court of China;
Past the South Gate willows comes the Car of Many Bells
On the upper Palace-Garden Road-a solid length of blossom;
A Forbidden City roof holds two phoenixes in cloud;
The foliage of spring shelters multitudes from rain;
And now, when the heavens are propitious for action,
Here is our Emperor ready-no wasteful wanderer.
