Zhōngnán Wàng Yú Xuě终南望余雪Viewing the Remaining Snow on Zhongnan Mountain

by 祖咏(Zǔ Yǒng)

zhōng nán yīn lǐng xiù, jī xuě fú yún duān.
终南阴岭秀，积雪浮云端。
The shaded ridges of Zhongnan are beautiful; the accumulated snow seems to float among the clouds.

lín biǎo míng jì sè, chéng zhōng zēng mù hán.
林表明霁色，城中增暮寒。
Above the forest shines the clear light after snow; within the city, the evening cold grows deeper.
