Temple of the First Lord of Shu
The heroic spirit of heaven and earth
Still inspires awe a thousand years hence.
The realm divided into three rival states,
The coinage of the Han restored to worth.
He gained a minister to found his throne,
Yet his son proved no worthy heir.
The Shu court singers, sad and forlorn,
Now dance before the Wei emperor's hall.
蜀先主廟
天地英雄氣，千秋尚凜然。
勢分三足鼎，業復五銖錢。
得相能開國，生兒不象賢。
淒涼蜀故妓，來舞魏宮前。
