Clear green hills at a right angle to the North wall,

White water winding to the East of the city.

Here is the place where we must part.

The lonely water-plants go ten thousand _li_;

The floating clouds wander everywhither as does man.

Day is departing—it and my friend.

Our hands separate. Now he is going.

"Hsiao, hsiao," the horse neighs.

He neighs again, "Hsiao, hsiao."
