Poem 江南春 | Spring South of the Yangtze River
江南春
杜牧 （803 — 852）
千里莺啼绿映红，
水村山郭酒旗风。
南朝四百八十寺，
多少楼台烟雨中。
Spring South of the Yangtze River
Du Mu (803 – 852)
Warblers chirp for miles around, greenery accentuates red blossoms;
waterside village rests against mountain, and tavern flags fly.
Of the four hundred eighty monasteries of the Southern Dynasties,
how many structures yet stand in rain misting by?
