金陵道中

瘦馬馱詩天一涯
倦鳥呼愁村數家
撲頭飛柳花
與人添鬓華

On My Way to Jinling                        Qiao Ji (1280-1345)  江紹倫譯

Tune: Leaning on Railings

Like a skinny horse burdened by poetry I strayed
Weary birds wailing pass lone villages on their way
Willow catkins shedding all over my head
As if my hair greys too slowly yet
