Empty hills, no one in sight,
only the sound of someone talking;
late sunlight enters the deep wood,
shining over the green moss again.

Additional quotes by Wang Wei

泛舟大河裏，積水窮天涯。
天波忽開拆，郡邑千萬家。
行復見城市，宛然有桑麻。
回瞻舊鄉國，淼漫連雲霞。

I have just seen you go down the mountain.
I close the wicker gate in the setting sun.
The grass will be green again in coming spring,
But will the wanderer ever return?

渭城朝雨浥轻尘，客舍青青柳色新。
劝君更尽一杯酒，西出阳关无故人。
