Li shangyin

You left. The river hangs high in front of my door, and cicadas are silent on the dewy branches.

I will always miss the good times. This day passed the day before today.

Polaris is closer to me now than in spring, and your messenger from the south will never arrive.

However, I doubt my dream. On the distant horizon, you have found another friend.
