[Foreign Poets Society] Liu Zongyuan - Fishing Alone on a Snowy, Cold River

"Foreign Poets Society" was a semester-long project I worked on where students introduce foreign poetry with their own beautiful artworks. This is a poem called "獨釣寒江雪(Fishing Alone on a Snowy, Cold River)," written by Liu Zongyuan, a famous Chinese poet.

獨釣寒江雪

Fishing alone on a snowy, cold river

千山鳥飛絶

萬徑人踪滅

孤舟蓑笠翁

獨釣寒江雪

No birds flying near a thousand mountains

No traces found on a million paths

In a lonely boat, an old man wearing a straw hat and a raincoat

Fishes alone on a snowy, cold river.
