李煜 《子夜歌·人生愁恨何能免》

人生愁恨何能免？
销魂独我情何限！
故国梦重归，
觉来双泪垂。

高楼谁与上？
长记秋晴望。
往事已成空，
还如一梦中。

Tune: "Song of Ziye"
Li Yu

How many one be spared the sorrow and regret of human life?
Why am I alone so overwhelmed, what end to my grief?
To my former kingdom I return in dreams again,
And awaken to find my tears already brimming.

With whom did I climb the high towers then?
How often I remember how we gazed into the clear autumn.
These things past are already drained and dead,
As though they were moments from within a single dream.
