More from Du Fu
"How I long to lie down in some gully, alone and untrammeled! But I laugh at myself: an old madman growing older, growing madder."
"The mud has thawed, and swallows fly around, On the warm sand, mandarin ducks are sleeping."
"The war has turned my hair white, but the wine turns it black again."
"A falcon hovers at the edge of the sky. Two gulls drift slowly up the river. Vulnerable while they ride the wind, they coast and glide with ease."
"The city has fallen: only the hills and rivers remain. In Spring the streets were green with grass and trees."
