Taking A Respite


While jogging…

1 曦陽暮雪街上冷
Morning sunlight, evening snow, streets are cold!
2 急步入店避風横 Into the roadside inn, I evaded the billowing winds.
3 熱酒今宵一壺醉 One jug of hot wine to intoxicate the night,
4 何顧明晨誤路行 Why worry of a compromised journey of next morning?

1 Metaphorically, 曦陽暮雪 means that life is short. Similar to 朝如青絲暮成雲 (locks of black hair of the morning, snowy had they become at dusk) Li Po’s 將進酒.
