杜牧
旅宿
旅館無良伴， 凝情自悄然。
寒燈思舊事， 斷雁警愁眠。
遠夢歸侵曉， 家書到隔年。
滄江好煙月， 門繫釣魚船。

A NIGHT AT A TAVERN
Solitary at the tavern,
I am shut in with loneliness and grief.
Under the cold lamp, I brood on the past;
I am kept awake by a lost wildgoose.
…Roused at dawn from a misty dream,
I read, a year late, news from home —
And I remember the moon like smoke on the river
And a fisher-boat moored there, under my door.
