泛舟 朱熹

泛舟      朱熹 (1130 -1200)

昨夜江邊春水生，艨艟巨艦一毛輕。

向來枉費推移力，此日中流自在行。

Boating      Zhu Xi   (1130 -1200) 

Last night vernal tides swelled in the river,
A giant ship now floats there like a piece of feather,
Efforts to move it in the past were all squandered,
Today it sails freely mid-stream with everything in its favour.
