白日正中，叹庞翁之机捷。坚城自堕，怜杞妇之悲深。
On the death of my husband Zhao Mingcheng, the governor of Huzhou
written by: : Li Qingzhao ( 12th century)
translated by： Julia Min
Your life journey is just half way, like the dazzling sun at midday. Then you’re gone, leaving me alone to a world sinking astray. You’re the elite of the Song, but nothing gold can stay.
I remember the daughter of Monk Pang, who ended her life before he passed away, —
a relieve from such grief faithful to a heart of pain.
Appreciation:
Yi’an’s husband Zhao Mingcheng (1081 – 1129, epigrapher, poet, and politician) died of disease after he was appointed to be Huzhou’s governor of the New Southern Song dynasty. His sudden death left his wife to a world under the siege of the Jin invaders.
