「行到水穷处,坐看云起时」
Walking to where the stream runs dry, I sit and watch the clouds rise
— Wang Wei, 'My Retreat at Mount Zhongnan'
When the path ends where the stream dries up, I sit and watch the clouds gather — a serene acceptance of life's natural course.
「曾经沧海难为水,除却巫山不是云」
Having seen the vast ocean, no other water can compare; having beheld the clouds of Mount Wu, no other clouds are worthy
— Yuan Zhen, 'Thoughts of Parting'
Having witnessed the boundless ocean, no other water suffices; having seen the clouds above Mount Wu, no others are worthy — a love so deep it eclipses all else.
「浮云游子意,落日故人情」
Floating clouds mirror the wanderer's thoughts; the setting sun reflects an old friend's feelings
— Li Bai, 'Farewell to a Friend'
Drifting clouds resemble the wanderer's restless path; the setting sun mirrors an old friend's lingering sorrow — a classic farewell poem.
Character Evolution
Explore how each character evolved over 3000+ years of Chinese writing history.
In oracle bone script,「云」resembles rolling clouds in the sky — a pure pictograph. The upper part is the cloud layer, the lower part is the trailing cloud wisps.
In bronze script,「云」gained a「雨」(rain) header, becoming「雲」— emphasizing the relationship between clouds and rain.
In seal script,「云」has two forms:「云」(the cloud-vapor pictograph) and「雲」(with the rain header added). The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Yun is the breath of mountains and rivers.'
From the simplest cloud pictograph, to the complex form「雲」with the rain header, and back to the simplified form that returns to the ancient original — a full circle. Clouds symbolize loftiness, freedom, and effortless grace.
