Su Shi: Frasi in inglese

“From the side, a whole range; from the end, a single peak;
far, near, high, low, no two parts alike.
Why can't I tell the true shape of Lu-shan?
Because I myself am in the mountain.”

Su Shi

“For ten long years the living of the dead knows nought.
Though to my mind not brought,
Could the dead be forgot?”

“The brimming waves delight the eye on sunny days;
The dimming hills give a rare view in rainy haze.
The West Lake looks like the fair lady at her best
Whether she is richly adorned or plainly dressed.”
