行到水窮處，坐看雲起時

Poem 《終南別業》 by Wang Wei (王维)


唐代 (Tang Dynasty)
詩人 (Poet)
王維 (Wang Wei)

終南別業

中歲頗好道，
晚家南山陲。
興來每獨往，
勝事空自知。

行到水窮處，
坐看雲起時。
偶然值林叟，
談笑無還期。


This poem is one of the masterpieces of the Tang Dynasty poet, Wang Wei, writing about pastoral landscape.

Wang Wei described the mood and enjoyment of a person roaming alone until reaching the waterline, and stopping to watch the clouds, as if we he actually meets such a person which vividly depicts the image of a hermit. The person stopped to chat and laugh with the elderly until he forgot the time to return home.

The author captured the typical environment, and highlighted the typical examples of daily things. See more of Wang Wei's poems
