Seeing Off Li Zhou with Evening Rain
By the Chu River in fine rain, at Jianye the evening bells sound.
Dim and heavy the sails come near, dark and slow the birds depart.
The Gate of the Sea is deep and unseen, by the riverbank trees hold distant moisture.
This parting stirs boundless feeling—my tears fall like scattered threads of silk.
賦得暮雨送李冑
楚江微雨裡，建業暮鐘時。
漠漠帆來重，冥冥鳥去遲。
海門深不見，浦樹遠含滋。
相送情無限，沾襟比散絲。
