望洞庭湖赠张丞相
孟浩然
八月湖水平，涵虚混太清。
气蒸云梦泽，波撼岳阳城。
欲济无舟楫，端居耻圣明。
坐观垂钓者，徒有羡鱼情。

To Premier Zhang Overlooking Cavehall Lake
By MENG Haoran
Tr. ZHAO Yanchun
The lake is smooth the eighth moon;
Void rules the sky up and earth down.
Over Cavehall Lake hangs thin mist;
The waves surge up to Yuehshine town.
I’d go across but I’ve no oar.
And feel ashamed before the throne.
I sit and watch the fisher there,
Admiring his angling alone.
