#parting

And once again we met, later, at the South bridge head.

And then the crowd broke up -and you went north to San palace.

And if you ask me how I regret that parting?

It is like the flowers falling at spring’s end,

confused, whirled in a tangle.

What is the use of talking! And there is no end of talking-

There is no end of things in the heart.

OriginalpoembyChinese poet Li Po, traslated by Ezra Pound(1915).
