Mooring at Maple Bridge by Night
张继
月落乌啼霜满天
江枫渔火对愁眠
姑苏城外寒山寺
夜半钟声到客船
yuè luò wū tí shuāng mǎn tiān
jiāng fēng yú huǒ duì chóu mián
gū sū chéng wài hán shān sì
yè bàn zhōng shēng dào kè chuán
Moonset, crow-call, frost fills the sky; river maples and fishing fires face a sleepless traveler. Outside Gusu, Cold Mountain Temple—midnight bells reach the guest boat.
Sound crosses distance; homesickness becomes audible.
张继《枫桥夜泊》：月落乌啼霜满天——失眠者以钟声认地方。听觉地理：听见什么，哪里就是故乡的反义词。可与《静夜思》并读。今日：乡愁常是一种不该响起却响起的声音。
Zhang Ji’s Night Mooring at Maple Bridge: moon set, crows, frost—then midnight bells. Auditory geography: what you hear when sleepless names the antonym of home. Pair with Quiet Night Thoughts.
旅行失眠时，把环境声当成诗：你在听见一座城的夜间性格。
When you cannot sleep on a trip, listen—cities have night voices.
Read first, then practice — fill in lines and write a character.
