4. Song of Green Door – Spring Grief

Light cold is lingering;

Wind and rain abate in the evening.

The Mountain Day draws near,

In my lonely bower

I'm drunk before the faded flowers

Just as last year.

- An excerpt of poem Song of Green Door – Spring Grief by Song Dynasty poet Zhang Xian (990-1078).
