广亭盖小湖，湖亭实清旷。
轩窗幽水石，怪异尤难状。
石尊能寒酒，寒水宜初涨。
岸曲坐客稀，杯浮上摇漾。
远水入帘幕，淅沥吹酒舫。
欲去未回时，飘飘正堪望。
酣兴思共醉，促酒更相向。
舫去若惊凫，溶瀛满湖浪。
朝来暮忘返，暮归独惆怅。
谁肯爱林泉，从吾老湖上。

宴湖上亭作
广亭盖小湖，湖亭实清旷。
The spacious pavilion covers a small lake, and the lake pavilion is truly open and clear.
轩窗幽水石，怪异尤难状。
The elegant windows reveal the secluded water and rocks, which are especially strange and difficult to describe.
石尊能寒酒，寒水宜初涨。
The stone statues can chill the wine, and the cold water should be filled at first.
岸曲坐客稀，杯浮上摇漾。
The curved bank is adorned by few seated guests, their cups floating and rocking on the water's surface.
远水入帘幕，淅沥吹酒舫。
The distant water enters the curtains, dripping soundly onto the wine boat.
欲去未回时，飘飘正堪望。
Before leaving, I can't help but look around, feeling light as if floating.
酣兴思共醉，促酒更相向。
Inebriated with joy, we all indulge in thoughts, urging each other to drink more.
舫去若惊凫，溶瀛满湖浪。
As the boat departs, it startles the ducks, and the vast lake waves blend together.
朝来暮忘返，暮归独惆怅。
From dawn till dusk, I forget to return; when evening comes, I feel lonely and desolate.
谁肯爱林泉，从吾老湖上。
Who would be willing to appreciate the woods and springs with me, to accompany me as I grow old on this lake?
紫帽之峰兮高且巍，白云一片兮空依依。我有兄兮在海湄，三月不见兮使我心悲。
江上花催问礼人，鄱阳莺报越乡春。谁怜此别悲欢异，万里青山送逐臣。
故人俱白发，念子始青袍。仆色新生敬，诗名旧仰高。天寒西日瘦，岁晚北风号。望望滕王阁，何时共濁醪。
我行大江西，胜槩数追逐。南楼岳阳上，雄绝快心目。今到西南第一楼，嗟哉余子真碌碌。岩层嶂叠匝天外，蒲净葭丛蘸江曲。三峨之雪晚在望，九顶之云暗相矗。萦纡拱揖俨左右，吞吐澎湃环山腹。瀰瀰漭漭三万顷，何止江郊供远瞩。俯观大象欲堕地，仰摘星辰几可掬。一天万景不可状，
春温红玉。纤衣学翦娇鸦绿。夜香烧短银屏烛。偷掷金钱，重把寸心卜。翠深不碍鸳鸯宿。采菱谁记当时曲。青山南畔红云北。一叶波心，明灭澹妆束。
凛凛节奇霜涧◇，昭昭心莹玉壶冰。正身尚可清风俗，当暑何须厌郁蒸。麈柄屡挥容请益，龙门虽峻忝先登。立朝行己师资久，宁止篇章此服膺。
