送人東遊 溫庭筠

送人東遊    溫庭筠  (812-870)

荒戌落黃葉，浩然離故關。
高風漢陽渡，初日郢門山。
江上幾人在，天涯孤棹還。
何當重相見，樽酒慰離顏。

Bidding a Friend Adieu Off to His Eastern Trip      

Wen Tingjun (812-870)

Over the desolate citadel yellow leaves falls,

Resolutely off your homeland you pull,
From the Ford of Hanyang amidst the high gale,
At Mt Yingmen you’ll reach tomorrow amidst the early sun glow,
Over the river remaining are scarcely any pals,
Seeing you off to end of world in your solitary boat,
If we ever again come across,
I’ll treat you to a booze to console our sundering sorrows.
