“Singing of Goose” by LUO Binwang
骆宾王 《咏鹅》
鹅，鹅，鹅，
曲项向天歌。
白毛浮绿水，
红掌拨清波。

Goose – Goose – Goose,
Necks arched, they sing to the sky,
White feather floating on green water,
Crimson webs paddling clear ripples.

“Song of Snow” by ZHANG Dayou
《咏雪》张打油

江上一笼统，
井上黑窟窿。
黄狗身上白，
白狗身上肿。

The river is one sweeping sight;
The well looks like a hole in the night.
Yellow dog is covered with white;
White dog looks swollen all right.
