怀君属秋夜
I think of you on this autumn night,
散步咏凉天
Walking and singing of the cool air.
空山松子落
In empty mountains pine seeds fall;
幽人应未眠
My quiet friend must still be awake.
What the poem means
Walking on a cool autumn night, the poet thinks of a friend. He imagines pine seeds falling in the mountains and wonders whether the friend is still awake. The second scene is imagined from afar.
Meet the poet
