金陵图 韦庄

金陵图

江雨霏霏江草齐， 六朝如梦鸟空啼。

无情最是台城柳， 依旧烟笼十里堤。

Wei Zhuang

A NANJING LANDSCAPE

Though a shower bends the river-grass, a bird is singing,

While ghosts of the Six Dynasties pass like a dream

Around the Forbidden City, under weeping willows

Which loom still for three miles along the misty moat.
