Excerpt from Cathay: Translations by Ezra Pound, for the Most Part From the Chinese of Rihaku, From the Notes of the Late Ernest Fenollosa, and the Decipherings of the Professors Mori and ArigaSong of the Bowmen of ShuHere we are, picking the first fernshootsAnd saying: When shall we get back to our country?Here we are because we have the Kennin for our foemen,We have no comfort because of these Mongols.We grub the soft fernshoots,When anyone says "Return," the others are full of sorrow.Sorrowful minds, sorrow is strong, we are hungry and thirsty.Our defence is not yet made sure, no one can let his friend return.We grub the old fernstalks.We say: Will we be let to go back in October?There is no ease in royal affairs, we have no comfort.Our sorrow is bitter, but we would not return to our country.What flower has come into blossom?Whose chariot? The General's.Horses, his horses even, are tired. They were strong.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
