清一杯浊酒散一场老友
[qīng yī bēi zhuó jiŭ sàn yī chăng lăo yŏu]
Literal translation is 'Clear One Cup Of Cloudy Wine To Disperse Old Friends.' It's poetic and sad, evoking memories of farewell parties where friends say their goodbyes over cups of wine (a traditional gesture). The clarity of the new day contrasts sharply with the murky wine of parting.
