君问归期未有期，
巴山夜雨涨秋池。
何当共剪西窗烛，
却话巴山夜雨时。
巴山夜雨涨秋池。
何当共剪西窗烛，
却话巴山夜雨时。
English translation
Written on a Rainy Night to the North
You ask when I will return; no date is set.
Night rain in the Ba Mountains swells the autumn pools.
When shall we trim a candle together by the western window
and speak again of this night of rain in the Ba Mountains?
