Today's Google Allo poem was Farewell to a Friend by Li Bai:
Green mountains bar the northern sky;
White water girds the eastern town.
Here is the place to say goodbye;
You'll drift like lonely thistledown.
With floating cloud you'll float away; Like parting day I'll part from you.
You wave your hand and go your way;
Our seeds still neigh, "Adieu, adieu!"
I thought that last line was a little odd, so I Googled the poem, and discovered that this is a translation of a Chinese poem:
青山橫北郭 , 白水遶東城
此地一為別, 孤蓬萬里征
浮雲遊子意, 落日故人情
揮手自茲去, 蕭簫斑馬鳴
And that last line should probably say "steeds" instead of "seeds." Here's a better translation. It doesn't rhyme, but we all know that's not necessary for a good poem.
Oh, that's lovely! Both versions, though I think I also prefer the unrhymed version with more focus on meaning.
