West Lake Old Reminisces - 西湖舊憶


艇過銀波寒宮寂 The skiff had left the silvery waves and the cold Lunar Palace is alone,
無聲卷留月色 Leaving in silence, ripples in undulation shattering the moonlight.
水動光浮何人目 Floating light upon the moving waters for whom to see?
雷峰舊映有誰憶 Old reflections of the Thunder Peak Pagoda, none remembered.

Thunder Peak Pagoda is where Madame White Snake was imprisoned after she killed thousands of innocents when she cause the river to course up the mountain to flood the Temple of the Golden Mountain to free her imprisoned husband from the clutches of the self-righteous abbot.
