A Chinese poem
Lettering:
楓橋夜泊
月落烏啼霜滿天
江楓漁火對愁眠
姑蘇城外寒山寺
夜半鐘聲到客船
唐 張繼
Translation:
Moored for the Night by the Maple Bridge
The Moon sets, crows cry, snows falling in all the skies
River maple, fisher's light stare at my sad eyes
Outside Suzhou, where the Hanshan Temple lies
Tolls of its midnight bell reach traveller's boat here tied
Tang Dynasty - Zhang Ji
Edge
Reeded
