王濬樓船下益州，Wang Jun led his fleet from Sichuan.

金陵王氣黯然收。The regime in Nanjing perished at once.

千尋鐵鎖沉江底，Despite resistent irons locked under the river

一片降幡出石頭。white flags were flying on the walls

人世幾回傷往事，How many times of wax and wane

山形依舊枕寒流。Mt. Zhong stands, and Long River flows.

今逢四海為家日，Glad now all territories united as one. 

故壘蕭蕭蘆荻秋。Reeds waved on the same old castle.
