Standing still, in the the courtyard, from sunset to nightfall;
Sometimes, I sit beneath the lantern until daybreak.
If I don't voice these feelings, who will?
On occasion I heave a heavy sigh.
translation of yezuo, 'sitting at night', by tang dynasty poet bai juyi. this website doesn't process chinese characters but who does?
