The moon sets, crows cry, and the sky is filled with frost,
Jiang Feng fishes and fires against Chou Mian.
Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City,
The midnight bell rings to the passenger ship.
Zhang Ji lived from 715 to 779 and died at the age of 64. His courtesy name was Yisun, and he was a native of Xiangyang, Hubei Province today. In the twelfth year of Tianbao (753 AD), he was a Jinshi at the age of 38. During the Anshi Rebellion, scribes fled to the present-day Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas to avoid the chaos, including Zhang Ji. One autumn night, while boating on the Maple Bridge outside Suzhou, I was struck by the scenery.
The moon has set, crows are crows, and the sky is filled with cold air. Facing the maple trees on the riverside and the fishing fires on the boats, I feel sad and unable to sleep. I could only hear the bells ringing in the middle of the night at the ancient Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, which reached the passenger ship I was on.
