赠孟浩然
李白
吾爱孟夫子，风流天下闻。
红颜弃轩冕，白首卧松云。
醉月频中圣，迷花不事君。
高山安可仰，徒此揖清芬！
To Meng Haoran
Li Bai
Master Meng is ’deed a man I deeply adore.
His unrestrained way of life few men can ignore.
When still young， he declined to be an official；
White-headed， he lies under pine trees and clouds withal.
Under moonlight， with wine he oft makes himself drunk；
Caring for flowers， from serving the king he will feel shrunk.
He is like a high mountain beyond my reverence；
I just have to bow to him for his pure elegance.
