The white clouds float over the mountains of Chu--
As over the mountains of Chin.
Everywhere the white clouds will follow you on. They will follow you on everywhere--
With you they will enter the Chu mountains,
And cross the waters of the Hsiang. Yonder across the waters of the Hsiang,
There is a cloak of ivy to wear,
And you may lie in a bed of white clouds. Go swiftly home, O my friend!
- Li Bai
