From My Studio at Gukou, Sent to Censor Yang
Gullies and springs wind around the thatched eaves;
Clouds and roseate mists weave curtains of fig-vine green.
Bamboo delights after the fresh rain;
Mountains love the hour of the setting sun.
The idle roosting heron always settles early;
The autumn flowers fall ever more slowly.
The houseboy sweeps the path of creeping vine—
Yesterday I made an appointment with an old friend.
谷口書齋寄楊補闕
泉壑帶茅茨，雲霞生薜帷。
竹憐新雨後，山愛夕陽時。
閑鷺棲常早，秋花落更遲。
家童掃蘿逕，昨與故人期。
