Poem 山居秋暝 | Autumn Dusk: A Hermit on the Mountain

山居秋暝

王维（700 — 781）

空山新雨后，天气晚来秋。

明月松间照，清泉石上流。

竹喧归浣女，莲动下渔舟。

随意春芳歇，王孙自可留。

Wang Wei (700 – 781)

Bare mountain after fresh rain; autumn arrives on evening air.

Bright moon shines between pines; clear springs run over rocks.

Bamboos rattle as washing women return; lotus jostle as fishing boats plunge.

Let the spring flowers droop as they may; he, for one, chose here to stay.
