第249章 逢入京使-Meeting a Messenger...

逢入京使-Meeting a Messenger on His Way to the Capital

逢入京使

岑参

故园东望路漫漫,双袖龙钟泪不干。

马上相逢无纸笔,凭君传语报平安。

Meeting a Messenger on His Way to the Capital

Cen Shen

Looking eastwards, I feel my homeland lies far, far away;

In vain I try with sleeves my o’erflowing of tears to stay.

Meeting you on horseback, I’ve no paper or pen wherewith to write;

Please give my kith and kin a message that I am all right.
