The moon sets, crows crow and the sky is cold. They sleep sadly on the maple trees and fishing fires by the river.

In the lonely and quiet Hanshan Ancient Temple outside Gusu City, the bell ringing at midnight reached the passenger ship.

Crows fell on the moon, crowed coldly, slept on maple trees, and slept in fishing lanes by the river.

In the lonely Hanshan Temple outside Suzhou, the bell that rang in the middle of the night reached the passenger ship.

As an exile poem, the influence of a night-mooring near maple bridge is unmatched by many similar poems. In terms of time, it ran through the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties and lasted for more than 1000 years. Today, it is still influenced by it, and it also produced popular songs, which are not only widely known in China, but also circulated overseas. For example, why did Matsui Shigen steal the Hanshan Temple monument?

It is precisely because the Japanese have a special liking for this poem that it is said that this poem has been copied and recited by everyone and even selected as a textbook for Japanese primary schools. In the newly-built Hanshan Temple, Yu Yue, a master of Chinese studies, wrote that all Japanese scholars came to see him. When I see it, I often say Hanshan Temple, saying that three-foot children in his country can recite poems. In other words, there are no children near Fengqiao who can't recite Sleeping at Night.

Therefore, in 1929, the Japanese built a temple on Mount Mei Qing, also called Hanshan Temple. This temple is modeled after Hanshan Temple in Suzhou, and a stone tablet engraved with Zhang Ji's poem "a night-mooring near maple bridge" has been erected. It also built a bell tower with a midnight bell and a maple bridge on the clear stream in the nearby valley. Such a great influence virtually tells the charm of this poem beyond time and space.
