Translation of Du Mu's poem:

Orioles call for a thousand li, flowers flash red against the green;
villages by the water and walled mountain-towns; wine-shop banners in the wind.
In the time of the southern dynasties, there were four hundred and eighty Buddhist temples;
How many pavilions are there now in the mist and rain?

千里莺啼绿映江
水村山郭酒旗风
南朝四百八十寺
多少楼台烟雨中
