In the misty dawn of the river's edge,
A poem flows, its words unbound.
The melody of the ancient lines,
Echoes through the centuries, unhindered.
The gentle breeze caresses the willows,
As the river flows, serene and calm.
The waves ripple, reflecting the sky,
A canvas of nature's infinite grace.
Oh, the beauty of this moment captured,
In the words that speak of love and loss.
The sorrow of parting, the joy of reunion,
All captured in this ancient song.
The moonlit night, stars shining bright,
A scene of tranquility, so serene.
The poet's heart, filled with emotion,
Writes of dreams and wishes, unspoken.
The rhythm of life flows on the river,
A journey of ups and downs, a ride through time.
Each moment a memory, each memory a pearl,
Stringing together the tapestry of life.
Oh, how I long to be a part of that scene,
To feel the breeze, to hear the waves.
To walk along the river's edge,
And let the past and future merge in my heart.
The poem continues, its words a dance,
A dance of life's joy and sorrow.
Each line a piece of history,
A piece of a soul's eternal story.
As I read this poem, my heart is moved,
By the beauty of its words and melody.
This ancient art, this legacy of love,
Will forever be cherished and remembered.
The river flows onward to the sea,
Carrying with it memories and dreams.
As I stand here, in this moment captured,
I feel the spirit of this ancient poem.
Oh, how I wish I could write like that,
With such passion and such truth.
To capture life's moments in words so pure,
To let them live forever in this poem.
But even if I cannot write like that,
I will cherish this art and its beauty.
For it is a legacy of our ancestors,
A gift to us from the past.
In conclusion, this ancient poem is a treasure,
A piece of our shared history and culture.
It teaches us about life's joys and sorrows,
And reminds us to cherish each moment.
As I close this English version of "Lingjiangxian,"
I offer my humble tribute to this ancient art.
May its legacy live on forever,
In the hearts of all who read and cherish it.
