Translation of the Tale of the Drunkard Pavilion.
The city of Chuzhou is surrounded by mountains. Many peaks in its southwest, woods, valleys are particularly beautiful, looking at the woods, deep and beautiful place in the distance, is Langya Mountain. Walking along the mountain road for six or seven miles, I gradually heard the murmuring of water, and from the middle of the two peaks, poured out of the brewing spring.
The mountain is circulating, the mountain road turns, there are pavilions with four corners upturned, like a bird spreading its wings, standing high above the spring water, is the pavilion of the drunkard. Who was the one who built the pavilion? It is a monk in the mountains.
Who is the person who named it? It was Taishou who named it after his alias (Drunkard). Taishou and the guests came here to drink, and they got drunk after a little drinking, and they were the oldest, so they called themselves drunkards.
The taste of a drunkard is not in drinking, but in the mountains and rivers. Appreciate the pleasure of the landscape, comprehend it in your heart, and place it on the wine.
Like when the sun comes out, and the fog in the woods dissipates, and the twilight clouds gather back, the caves of the mountains and rocks become dark, dark and bright, (that is) morning and evening in the mountains. Wildflowers bloom and exude a tranquil fragrance, beautiful trees are lush with foliage, forming a rich shade, the weather is crisp, the frost is white, the water level is low, and the stones are exposed, which is the scenery of the four seasons in the mountains. Ascending the mountain in the morning and returning in the evening, the scenery of the four seasons is different, so the fun is endless.
As for the people who carry things on their backs singing on the road, the people who walk rest under the trees, the people in front call, the people in the back agree, the old and the young come and go without interruption, this is the Chuzhou people traveling. Go to the stream to fish, the stream is deep, the fish are fat, and the water from the brewing spring is used to make wine, the spring water is sweet and the color of the wine is pure, the game in the mountains, and the vegetables in the field are messily placed in front of it, which is the banquet held by Taishou. The pleasure of drinking at the banquet is not in the orchestra, the person who throws the pot hits, the person who plays chess wins, the wine glass and the wine chip are intertwined, people sometimes stand, sometimes sit, shouting loudly, and the guests are (to their heart's content) joy.
His face was old, his hair was gray, and he was drunk among the guests, too drunk.
Soon the sun set, the figures were scattered, the Taishou returned, and the guests followed. At this time, the trees are shaded by thick shade, and the birds are chirping everywhere, and the birds are happy after the tourists leave. However, birds only know the fun of the mountains and forests, but they don't know the fun of people, and people only know the fun of following Taishou, but they don't know that Taishou is enjoying their own fun.

All around Chu are mountains. Its southwest peaks, the forest gully is particularly beautiful, and the one who looks at it is blue and deep and beautiful, Langya also. The mountain travels six or seven miles, and gradually hears the sound of water gurgling and pouring out between the two peaks, brewing springs.
The peak turns around, there is a pavilion wings on the spring, and the drunkard pavilion is also. Who is the pavilion maker? The monk of the mountain is also wise.
Who is the name? Too shou calls himself also. Taishou and guests come to drink here, drink less and get drunk, and the year is the highest, so he calls himself a drunkard.
The drunkard's intention is not in the wine, but in the mountains and rivers. The joy of mountains and rivers, the heart and the wine of the house.
If the sun rises and the forest opens, the clouds return and the caves are twilight, the obscure changers, and the morning and twilight in the mountains. The wild fragrance is fragrant, the beautiful wood is beautiful and prosperous, the wind and frost are noble, the water falls and the stone comes out, and the four times in the mountains are also. Towards the beginning, returning at dusk, the scenery of the four seasons is different, and the joy is endless.
As for the loser singing on the way, the traveler resting on the tree, the former calling, the latter responding, the clever, the person who comes and goes, and the person who travels. Fishing near the stream, the stream is deep and the fish are fat. The brewing spring is wine, and the spring is fragrant and the wine is watery; The mountain cuisine is wild, and the miscellaneous and former Chen is too feasting.
The joy of the feast, not silk and bamboo, among the shooters, the game wins, the staggered, the sit-up and noisy, the guests are happy. Pale and white-haired, depressed, too drunk.
The sunset is in the mountains, the shadows are scattered, and the guests are too guarded to return. The woods are shady, the chirping is up and down, the visitors go and the birds are happy. However, birds know the joy of mountains and forests, but they do not know the joy of people; People know that they are too happy to swim, but they don't know that they are too happy to be too guarded.
Drunk can have fun with it, and those who wake up can speak to the text are too guarded. Who is Taishou? Luling Ouyang Xiu also.
The drunkard's intention is not in the wine, but in the mountains and rivers. >>>More
