介绍:
A Companion Piece to Governor Li’s “Climbing to the Super-numerary[1]’s New Pavilion by the Old Wall of Lixia”
The construction of the new pavilion is done,
I can dimly see the south shore of the clear lake.
Its site rests among former terraces[2] and lodges[3],
vapors darken sea and mountain deep away.
I fancy the round lotuses have been here from olden[4] days,
I am stirred how the remnant[5] battlements[6] have survived until now.
A sweet banquet has been prepared for this occasion,
the mournful[7] strings set minds on ancient things.
Our host makes a toast to his honored guest,
seated by rank, we feast in the northern grove[8].
Not excluding the inspiration[9] of a shack-dweller[10][11],
I get to join their “Liangfu Songs”.
