Poem titled "Night Mooring at Maple Bridge" by the Tang dynasty poet Zhang Ji.
月落烏啼霜滿天,江楓漁火對愁眠
姑蘇城外寒山寺,夜半鐘聲到客船
The moon sets, the crows cry, the air is full of frost
River Maples and fires on fishing boats are the answer to a worried sleep
In Gusu, the bells of Hanshan Temple ring
In the middle of the night, to welcome a guest on a boat

Unidentifiable artist

With regards,
I.Nagy
