久客多亲故。
伫立[3]望江波，
江波正东注。

On Leaving Wuchang[1]
Jie Xisi
On going home, none will delay;
But I dislike to start my way.
I long for home when the year ends;
Staying abroad long, I’ve new friends.
Standing, I gaze on river’s flow;
And see the waves but homeward go.
注释：
[1]On going homeward towards Fengcheng in Jiangxi, the poet was reluctant to leave his new friends in Wuchang.
