終日尋春不見春，芒鞋踏破嶺頭雲；

歸來偶把梅花嗅，春在枝頭已十分。

Looking for Spring

Wujin Zang

(Years unknown, Tang Dynasty)

English translation: John Balcom

The whole day spent looking for spring

but not seeing spring;

Straw sandals worn out

on cloud-covered peaks.

Return to casually sniff

the plum blossoms;

Spring is already fully

on the branch tips.

── from Lengyanjing Zongtong
