by Wang Anshi (1021 - 1086)
Translation by Richard Wilhelm (1873 - 1930)

Frühlingsnacht
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Chinese (中文) 
Der goldnen Schale Weihrauch ist verglommen.
Die Wasseruhr hat aufgehört zu tropfen.
Kühl weht des Morgenwindes leiser Schauer.
Es dringt die scharfe Kälte in das Zimmer.

Des vollen Frühlings Schönheit ist gekommen,
Sie scheucht den Schlaf und macht das Herz uns klopfen.
Der Mond senkt sich herab zur Gartenmauer,
unter der Blumen Schatten ruht sein Schimmer.
