Wang Wei 王維
mid-8th century · Tang China
The empty hills, just after rain; with evening the air turns to autumn. A bright moon shines through the pines; clear spring water runs over the stones.
空山新雨後，天氣晚來秋。
明月松間照，清泉石上流。"Autumn Evening in My Mountain Home," in the Complete Tang Poems

Li Bai 李白
8th century · Tang China
Too lazy to wave my white feather fan, I go naked in the green woods. I take off my headcloth and hang it on a rock wall, and bare my head to the wind in the pines.
嬾搖白羽扇，躶體青林中。
脫巾挂石壁，露頂洒松風。"A Summer Day in the Mountains," in the Complete Tang Poems
Jeong Yakyong 丁若鏞
c. 1796 · Joseon Korea
Past a month of steaming rain, foul air piling up, my limbs without strength from morning to dusk. Then early autumn: the blue sky clear and vast, from end to end not one speck of cloud. Is that not a delight?
跨月蒸淋積穢氛
四肢無力度朝曛
新秋碧落澄寥廓
端軸都無一點雲

The rustle of falling leaves: I took it for a thin rain. I called the monk to go out and look. "The moon is hanging in the tree south of the stream."

14th century · Goryeo Korea
The paper quilt is cold and the temple lamp is dim; all night the little novice has not rung the bell. He will be cross that the guest opens the door so early, but I must see the snow weighing down the pine before the hermitage.
