村晚 雷震

村晚        雷震(宋)

草滿池塘水滿陂， 山銜落日浸寒漪。  

牧童歸去橫牛背， 短笛無腔信口吹。  

A Village Night Scene            Lei Zhen (Song Poet)

The pond is teeming with grasses while water overflows at the rim,

The setting sun flushes on the mountain with its image on the chilly ripples gleams,
Homecoming cowherds on cows’ backs askew lean,
Playing their pipes out of tune but just whatever they whim.
