Midnight Song of WuLi BaiText:
Chang'an one disc moon Ten thousand households pound clothes noise Autumn wind blow no end Always jade pass think What day pacify Hu prisoner Husband end long journey Paraphrase: In 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? Note: The Hu were a barbarian tribe who periodically attacked China's north-west frontier during the Tang dynasty. Yuguan was a Chinese fort. |
