Cui Tu
Line after line has flown back over the border.
Where are you headed all by yourself？
In the evening rain you call to them
And slowly you alight① on an icy pond.
The low wet clouds move faster than you
Along the wall toward the cold moon.
If they caught you in a net② or with a shot③，
Would it be worse than flying alone？
① alightvi. (鸟等)飞落；(雪花等)飘落 adj. 燃烧着的
② netn. 网；网状物；罗网，陷阱
③ shotn. 射击，开枪；弹丸；炮弹

崔涂
几行归塞尽，
念尔独何之。
暮雨相呼失，
寒塘欲下迟。
渚云低暗度，
关月冷相随。
未必逢矰缴，
孤飞自可疑。
