    FAREWELL TO YANG, WHO'S
    LEAVING FOR KUO-CHOU

    Those canyons are too narrow to travel.
    How will you make your way there, when

    it's a mere bird-path - a thousand miles
    and gibbons howling all day and night?

    We offer travel-spirits wine, then you're
    gone. Nü-lang shrine, mountain forests

    and beyond. But we still share a radiant
    moon. And do you hear a nightjar there?

    Poem by Wang Wei (701-761)
