On Seeing Off Brother Pengxian Returning Home -3
(Written in 1916)
by Zhou Enlai
Peers compete in hurried flight,
You alone crack the leading whip.
Clumsy in craft for others’ gain I yield,
In the swift current I give way to your worth.
The flock of crows clings to the evening trees,
A lone wild goose soars into the vast sky.
Only with old companions in parting
Does my heart grow heavy dejected.
