As dusk is falling autumn is felt in the bones.
A silvery moon is shining through the pines,

The lotus stirs where boats out fishing curl.
The scents of spring may go; that's Nature's will.
This season here attracts the noble still.

Though fragrant spring may pass away,
Still here's the place for you to stay.

And golden orioles sing amid the leafy trees.

And saw the only light from the boat.
In the morning I looked into the Jing city where it was red and wet,
And found flowers booming everywhere.
