瓜步阻风

Yesterday, I burned incense to visit the Holy Mother, bowing in my green robe as if carrying a heavy bow.
Only praying for clear skies over a vast land, to sweep away clouds and calm storms.
Thought my words would instantly echo, unaware that the deity didn't hear me.
Before my door, white waves like silver mountains, on the river, fierce winds like raging tigers.
The boat is stuck, oars hard to move, forced to linger by riverbanks.
I only love the lightness of seagulls flying, while the tender grass dances pitifully.
Having traversed all rivers and lakes, now I face conflict instead of peace.
Upstream joyous歌声, downstream sorrowful cries, north-bound ships entangled with south-bound.
To those south-bound ships, I say, don't be arrogant, life's ups and downs like a water lever.
I'll sell my sword to buy sacrificial animals, to cleanse the temple and offer my respects.
Pouring golden wine into the vessel, hoping the divine will grant a strong south wind.
As I raise sails and laugh at you, not knowing where fate has led me, on a desolate shore, listening to fierce howls.
