五言律诗 Five character regular verse
巴山道中除夜有怀-崔涂 On New Year's Eve - Cui Tu
迢递三巴路， Three Ba's road is turning out of scene;
羁危万里身。 Thousands of parlous miles I am traveling.
乱山残雪夜， In this snowed night and wild mountains,
孤烛异乡春。 Here is a lone candle and a foreign spring.
渐与骨肉远， So apart from my darling,
转於僮仆亲。 Let servants be my kin.
那堪正飘泊， How I can bear such life drifting,
明日岁华新。 With New Year just at tomorrow morning.
