White Cloud Fountain

白 云 泉

[唐] 白居易（许渊冲译）

Behold the White Cloud Fountain on the sky-blue Mountain!

White clouds enjoy pleasure while water enjoys leisure.

Why should the torrent sash down from the mountain high

And overflow the human world with waves far and nigh?

天平山上白云泉，

云自无心水自闲。

何必奔冲山下去，

更添波浪向人间！
