I love this sparse and concrete translation by Hyun Woo Kim of Du Fu’s poem. No idea but in things William Carlos Williams (I think) used to say. I wish I understood the ideograms. The translation does express a sad but beautiful sadness, the resigned sadness of the poet’s later years. Very well done.
