天问（屈原）(之四)

            天何所沓？
            十二焉分？
            日月安属？
            列星安陈？
            出于汤谷，
            次于蒙汜，
            自明及晦，
            所行几里？

            Asking Heaven (4)(QuYuan)

            Where the shoes were laid for the Heaven-wide?
            How the twelve-starry divisions were fine-arranged

            With floating-hanging Sun and Moon around?
            And those fine-arraying stars yet?

            Rising from Yang(旸)-Valley

            and being a sunset on Mong(蒙)-shore

            It was how long a journey

            From dawn-to-night every route?
