独立寒秋,湘江北去,橘子洲头。
看万山红遍,层林尽染;漫江碧透,百舸争流。
鹰击长空,鱼翔浅底,万类霜天竞自由。
怅寥廓,问苍茫大地,谁主沉浮。
携来百侣曾游,
忆往昔峥嵘岁月稠。
恰同学少年,风华正茂;书生意气,挥斥方遒。
指点江山,激扬文字,粪土当年万户侯。
曾记否,到中流击水,浪遏飞舟。
Changsha
Alone I stand in the autumn cold
On the tip of Orange Island,
The Xiang flowing northward;
I see a thousand hills crimsoned through
By their serried woods deep-dyed,
And a hundred barges vying
Over crystal blue waters.
Eagles cleave the air,
Fish glide under the shallow water;
Under freezing skies a million creatures contend in freedom.
Brooding over this immensity,
I ask, on this bondless land
Who rules over man's destiny?
I was here with a throng of companions,
Vivid yet those crowded months and years.
Young we were, schoolmates,
