6.244

帆掛西風別海城,二疎千古道相應,誰誇富貴沽時譽,
自笑經綸作技能。殘葉賦題紅片片,
遠山供望碧層層,武林到日符嘉遁,高訪巖扃只許僧。

With sails set in the west wind, you depart the sea city; / Like the two Shus of a thousand ages, your ways correspond. / Who would boast of wealth and honor to buy worldly acclaim? / Smiling at yourself for treating statecraft as mere skill. / Inscribing poems on fallen leaves, red fragment after fragment; / The distant mountains offer their view, emerald layer upon layer. / The day you arrive at Wulin, fulfilling an auspicious seclusion, / Visiting high the craggy retreat, admitting only monks.
