Mountain Path

杜牧

By, Du Mu

Translated by Yoyo

遠上寒山石徑斜

Far up the winter mountain the rocky road slopes

白雲深處有人家

Deep within the white clothes are families

停車坐愛楓林晚

I stop my carriage and sit loving the maple night

霜葉紅於二月花

The dew leaves are more red than second month flowers

***This is one of the first poems I learned in Chinese school that wasn't pandering to children.  The image of the tiny house in a mountain of maple still has a strong impression on me.
