Poetry

Li Pin's poem "Crossing the Han River" is described by Kenneth Rexroth as "one of the most perfect poems of the later T'ang".[2]

渡漢江 Crossing the Han River
嶺外音書絕， Away from home, I was longing for news
經冬復立春。 Winter after winter, spring after spring.
近鄉情更怯， Now, nearing my village, meeting people,
不敢問來人。 I dare not ask a single question.

Translation by Witter Bynner.[3][4]
