瑤池 李商隱

瑤池    李商隱 (813-858)
瑤池阿母綺窗開，

黃竹歌聲動地哀。
八駿日行三萬里，

穆王何事不重來。

The Celestial Pool      Li Shangyin (813-858)

The Goddess Xi Wang has her verdant casement pulled off,

Presently comes the grievous mournful song of the Yellow Bamboo,
The eight coursers of King Mu of Zhou could daily travel eighty thousand miles,
There’s no reason why he has not yet recalled.
