Mount Zhongnan - 终南山

Its massive height near the City of Heaven Joins a thousand mountains to the corner of the sea. Clouds, when I look back, close behind me, Mists, when I enter them, are gone.

Love Seeds - 相思

The red bean grows in southern lands.    With spring its slender tendrils twine. Gather for me some more, I pray,    Of fond remembrance ’tis the sign.

Dancing - 赠张云容舞

Wide sleeves sway. Scents, Sweet scents Incessantly coming.
