【英译】 Calming the
Waves (Su
Shi) Listen not to the rain beating against the
trees. Why don't you slowly walk and chant at ease? Better than a
saddle I like sandals and cane. I'd fain, in a straw cloak, spend
my life in mist and rain. Drunken, I am sobered by the vernal wind
shrill and rather chill. In front, I see the slanting sun atop the
hill. Turning my head, I see the dreary beaten track. Let me go
back. impervious to rain or shine, I'll have my own
will.
