Farewell to Cambridge

Author: Xu Zhimo

I left quietly, just as I came gently; I waved my hand gently and bid farewell to the clouds in the western sky.

The golden willow by the river is the bride in the sunset; Beautiful shadows in the waves ripple in my heart.

Green grass on the soft mud, oily, swaying at the bottom of the water; In the gentle waves of He Kanghe, I would like to be an aquatic plant!

That pool under the shade of elm is not a clear spring, but a rainbow in the sky; Crushed in floating seaweed, a rainbow-like dream is precipitated.

Looking for dreams? Support a long pole and swim back to a greener place on the grass; Full of starlight, singing in the splendor of starlight.

But I can't play the piano, just a farewell flute; Summer insects are also silent for me, silence is Cambridge tonight!

I left quietly, just as I came quietly; I waved my sleeve without taking away a cloud.
