范仲淹
 
碧云天
 
黄叶地
 
秋色连波
 
波上寒烟翠
 
山映斜阳天接水
 
芳草无情
 
更在夕阳外
 
 
黯乡魂
 
追旅思
 
夜夜除非
 
好梦留人睡
 
明月楼高休独倚
 
酒入愁肠
 
化作相思泪
 
 
 
Sumuzhe
 
By Fan Zhongyan  Translated by Zhang liguo 
 
The blue sky and white cloud
 
The yellow leaves falling on the earth
 
The autumn color dyed the endless waves
 
The chilly frog is jadeite 
 
The sky and water fused 
 
The maintain against the sunset
 
The merciless grass 
 
Growing beyond
 
 
 
Homesick and depressed 
 
My travel memories be chased
 
How many nights can hardly endure 
 
Unless a nice dream attached
 
While the moon is bright and high
 
And should be not nestling against mansion lonely 
 
How longed for you
 
The wine I drank turned into tears |

Thanks for sharing. 
 
 
It would be better to separate title from the text. Here are a few things I noticed:
 
 
L4, where does "frog" come from?
 
L6, "maintain" or "mountain"? 
 
 
Verse one reads like a list.
