The tea from Sichuan you
Sent me is fragrant and fine
Brewing it with Wei river water
Brings out its best qualities;
A cup of it is rich as milk
Is something wonderful to behold; now, because
I have taken too much wine, and
Because of the sorrows of spring,
It took all your tea to
Assuage my thirst.
