"Calming the Waves" Su Shi

Don’t listen to the rain beating against the forest leaves;
Why not walk slowly, chanting at ease?
Better than a saddle and horse — I prefer sandals and a cane.
Who’s afraid?
A straw cloak in misty rain, I’ll live my life the same.

The chilly spring wind sobers the wine a little,
Yet the mountain air is slightly cold.
The setting sun breaks through the clouds ahead.
Looking back at the stormy place I came from,
I return —
Neither wind nor rain nor shining sun can trouble me anymore.

《定風波》 蘇軾
莫聽穿林打葉聲,何妨吟嘯且徐行。
竹杖芒鞋輕勝馬,誰怕?一蓑煙雨任平生。  
料峭春風吹酒醒,微冷,山頭斜照卻相迎。
回首向來蕭瑟處,歸去,也無風雨也無晴。
