楓橋夜泊
唐 張繼 ( 約 715~779 )

月落烏啼霜滿天，江楓漁火對愁眠；
姑蘇城外寒山寺，夜半鐘聲到客船。

Mooring Under the Maple Bridge
Zhang Ji (Approx. 715 - 779, Tang Dynasty)
English translation: Fo Guang Shan International Translation Center

Moon sets, crows caw,
    sky is full of frost;
River maples, fishing-boat lights
    break through my troubled sleep.
Beyond the city of Suzhou lies
    Han Shan monastery.
At midnight the clang of the bell
    reaches the traveler’s boat.

── from Quan Tang Shi (Complete Collection of Tang Poems)
