望月怀远 wànɡ yuè huái yuǎn – Looking At The Moon And Thinking Of One Far Away
| 海上生明月，hǎi shànɡ shēnɡ mínɡ yuè | The moon, grown full now over the sea, |
| 天涯共此时。tiān yá ɡònɡ cǐ shí | Brightening the whole of heaven, |
| 情人怨遥夜，qínɡ rén yuàn yáo yè | Brings to separated hearts |
| 竟夕起相思。jìnɡ xī qǐ xiānɡ sī | The long thoughtfulness of night…. |
| 灭烛怜光满，miè zhú lián ɡuānɡ mǎn | It is no darker though I blow out my candle. |
| 披衣觉露滋。pī yī jué lù zī | It is no warmer though I put on my coat. |
| 不堪盈手赠，bù kān yínɡ shǒu zènɡ | So I leave my message with the moon |
| 还寝梦佳期。huán qǐn mènɡ jiā qī | And turn to my bed, hoping for dreams |
