The flocks rise and dissolve until the last is flown away.
The clouds drift and swirl until the last fades away.
The mountain and I remain to regard each other, until only the mountain remains.

... is the translation I'm waiting for, but Obata is pretty good here. With this and one or two others in hand, somewhere towards the centre is a glimpse of the truth. ( )

Li Po -- aka Bai (Chinese: 李白; pinyin: Li Pai, Li Bo) 701 – 762, is a major Chinese poet of the Tang Dynasty, often called China's "golden age". Obata introduces him as "the best-known Chinese poet in the Orient for the last one thousand years". Li Po was both prolific and creative, and the poems stretched the rules of versification of his time. Around a thousand extant poems are attributed to him today.

The translator pretends no erudition in Chinese literature, and selected a little more than one-tenth of the works of Li Po for this volume, first translated in 1916. This edition was revised in 1935. Includes the Li Yang-ping's Preface "written in the euphuism of the Six Dynasty Period". Euphuism -- with its prallel constructions, profuse classical allusions, and curiour hyperboles. Also includes two biographies from the "Books of Tang", which remain the official and only extant authentic accounts of the poet's life written in Chinese. Contains Bibliography, 20 pages of Chinese, and Map of China.
