Peaks and ridges mass together
River breakers blast in wrath
In and out through river and hill
Goes the road through old Tong Pass
I gaze at the western capital
All my thought distraught
This is the place that breaks the heart
Where Han and Qin marched past
Palaces and towers and halls
All turned dirt at last
Dynasties rise
The people suffer
Dynasties fall
The people suffer
