STUDY IN CHINA GLOBAL (SCG)Climb the Li Zhi Tower
登 荔 枝 楼
平 羌 江 水 接 天 流
凉 入 帘 栊 已 似 秋。
唤 作 主 人 元 是 客
知 非 吾 土 强 登 楼。
闲 凭 曲 槛 常 忘 去
欲 下 危 梯 更 小 留。
公 事 无 多 厨 酿 美
此 身 不 负 负 嘉 州。
Deng Li Zhi Lou
Ping qiang jiang shui jie tian liu
Liang ru lian long yi si qiu.
Huan zuo zhu ren yuan shi ke
Zhi fei wu tu qiang deng lou.
Xian ping qu jian chang wang qu
Yu xia wei ti geng xiao liu.
Gong shi wu duo chu niang mei
Ci sheng bu fu fu jia zhou.
Climb the Li Zhi Tower
Flat Qiang River flows connect to the sky
Coolness enters curtained windows already like autumn.
I was called out to come here as an important guest
Know this area is not mine, again climb this famous tower.
So much leisure, often come back home to hear songs from the banister
Remain for a while, expect the steps going down to be dangerous.
Without many official duties, go to the kitchen to help make good wine
Enjoy my stay here in Jiazhou, but did not return the favor.
Notes:
Li Yu was assigned to this city as interim mayor.
Jiazhou: City near Mt. Le in Sichuan Province.
