South of the River
Han Yuefu



River south can pick lotus
Lotus leaf how field field
Fish play lotus leaf in
Fish play lotus leaf east
Fish play lotus leaf west
Fish play lotus leaf south
Fish play lotus leaf north
South of the river, you can pick lotuses,
How like a field are the lotus leaves!
Fish play in the lotus leaves:
Fish play east of the lotus leaves,
Fish play west of the lotus leaves,
Fish play south of the lotus leaves,
Fish play north of the lotus leaves.
