Nostalgia of Xu Hun in Tang Dynasty in Gusu

Original text:

The rest of the Forbidden City leans, and the grain seedlings are infinitely sad.

Deer in the desert compete for new grass, and the empty garden island occupies a beach of sand.

Wu Xiuyu is cold in the rain, the wind in the Chu River is urgent, and there are many sails.

Poor countries break loyal ministers and die, and the sun and the moon flow eastward to give birth to Bai Bo.

Translation:

Passing through the ancient city of Gusu, we went ashore, hung on the ancient platform, first boarded the stage, and looked out, only to see rows of ears of grain and millet growing on the broken bricks and tiles, and wormwood growing on the broken walls. Elk wander around, fighting for new grass, sedges and nesting waterfowl.

When Shan Yu came, when you stood on the stage by the window sill, everything was so bleak. The far sail of the Chu River in the storm is even more depressing. In wuyue War, loyal minister Wu Zixu was killed and Wu was destroyed. It's really embarrassing. The big river sailing in strong winds flows eastward in the turbulent Bai Bo and disappears into the sky.
