A Poem by Chinese Poet Li Bai

I really like Chinese poet Li Bai and here is my translation of his poem

"I Vist A Temple That is Empty"

(Fang Dai Tian Shan Dao Shi Bu Yu in Chinese)

I can hear distant barking when I cross the river

Perfuming blossoms of peach flower gets thicker in the morn

There is a deer at the end of the forest I can see

The bell in the temple does not ring in the noon

Wild bamboos carry the summer clouds

Beautiful mountain wears a waterfall

My friend lives in the temple is nowhere to be found

Leaning on a pine tree, I miss him
