Stormy Day, 4 November

Poem written for President Trump over 800 years ago? translated by Yiyan Han (c)

Stormy Day, 4 November

The Chinese poem, as shown in the image, was written by a famous ancient poet Mr LU You (陸游). Some Chinese netizens wonder if he wrote this poem for President Trump over 800 years ago – What an imaginative and fascinating connection! If so, Mr Lu would had been a great time traveller as he foresaw what would happen on 4 November 2020, yes, a very stormy day. Yiyan Han (c), 2020-11-15, minor modification on 2020-11-22. The subtitle is added by the translator.

No self pity while living in a remote valley, being poorly
‘n’ ponder relentlessly how to defend my country
In the night lying down in bed
surrounded by the stormy sound
enter my dream the mighty cavalry
crossing frozen river charging forward
