风雨
李商隐
凄凉宝剑篇， 羁泊欲穷年。
黄叶仍风雨， 青楼自管弦。
新知遭薄俗， 旧好隔良缘。
心断新丰酒， 销愁斗几千。
wind and rain
li shangyin
i ponder on the poem of the precious dagger.
my road has wound through many years.
...now yellow leaves are shaken with a gale;
yet piping and fiddling keep the blue houses merry.
on the surface, i seem to be glad of new people;

but doomed to leave old friends behind me,
i cry out from my heart for xinfeng wine
to melt away my thousand woes.
