Bidding Farewell to Xin Jian at the Furong Tower

Language: English after the Chinese (中文)

The breezing storm pouring onto Wu incessantly throughout the night, 
Farewell to my friend at dawn, I face the Chu Mountain in solitude and depress.
Upon arrival at Luo Yang, if relatives and friends there inquire about me, please tell them,
My heart is as pure and sincere as the ice in a jade pot.
