Search For Zhang Zirong, in Seclusion at the White Crane Cliffs
Green edges along the White Crane cliffs
Hermits have their rural seclusion here.
Rocks and water by the unoccupied front courtyard steps
Forested ravines do not have people fishing or gathering wood.
Green pine trees old with many years
Frost and bitter winds, bamboo very thin and sparse.
Seeing this, recall past events
Carry all of this back to my hut.
