HEARING A FLUTE ON A SPRING NIGHT IN LUOYANGFrom whose home secretly flies the sound of a jade flute?It's lost amid the spring wind which fills Luoyang city.In the middle of this nocturne I remember the snapped willow,What person would not start to think of home!

LAO LAO TANG PAVILIONWhat place under heaven most hurts the heart?Laolao Ting, for seeing visitors off.The spring wind knows how bitter it is to part,The willow twig will never again be green.

MIDNIGHT SONG OF WUIn Chang'an city is the disk of the moon,The sound of pounding clothes in ten thousand households.The autumn wind is blowing without cease,All the time I think of Yuguan pass.When will we pacify the pillaging Hu,So my husband can end his long journey?

STAYING THE NIGHT AT A MOUNTAIN TEMPLEThe high tower is a hundred feet tall,From here one's hand could pluck the stars.I do not dare to speak in a loud voice,I fear to disturb the people in heaven.

QUESTION AND ANSWER ON THE MOUNTAINYou ask for what reason I stay on the green mountain,I smile, but do not answer, my heart is at leisure.Peach blossom is carried far off by flowing water,Apart, I have heaven and earth in the human world.

VIEWING HEAVEN’S GATE MOUNTAINSThe River Chu cuts through the middle of heaven's gate,The green water flowing east reaches here then swirls.On either bank the blue hills face towards each other,The flatness of a lonely sail comes from by of the sun.

SITTING ALONE ON JINGTING SHAN HILLA flock of birds is flying high in the distance,A lonely cloud drifts idly on its own.We gaze at each other, neither growing tired,There is only Jingting Shan.

MARBLE STEPS COMPLAINTWhite dew grows on the marble steps,And in the long night, soaks into my stockings.But now I let the crystal curtain down,And gaze through it at the autumn moon.

FOR WANG LUNLi Bai is already on the boat, preparing to depart,I suddenly hear the sound of stamping and singing on the shore.The water of Taohua pond reaches a thousand feet in depth,But still it's not as deep as Wang Lun's feelings seeing me off.
