Gazing Out Across the Ocean
东临碣石，以观沧海。 水何澹澹，山岛竦峙。 树木丛生，百草丰茂。
秋风萧瑟，洪波涌起。 日月之行，若出其中； 星汉灿烂，若出其里，
幸甚至哉，歌以咏志。曹操《观沧海》
Come east of Jieshi Cliff
I gaze out across the ocean,
Its rolling waves
Studded with rocks and islets;
Dense the trees and bushes here,
Rank the undergrowth;
The autumn wind is soughing,
Huge billows are breaking.
Sun and moon take their course
As if risen from the sea;
The bright galaxy of stars
Seems sprung from the deep .
And so , with joy in my heart,
I hum this song.
