Solace by the West Lake: A poem by Su Shi

This poem was composed by the renowned Song Dynasty (960-1279) literary figure Su Shi. It expresses his love for the tranquil landscapes of mountains and rivers, but also conveys the challenges of venturing alone. While the poet reflects on these sentiments, there is a shift in tone as he finds solace in the West Lake: “How about enjoying fine wine by the West Lake, where the fragrance of apricot and peach blossoms fill the air and grace my hair bun.”
