[Wade]

I know this is not military, and probably not Japanese, but I would like to know what is written on this ivory bottle.

Found it!


“Mountain Lodge at Autumn Nightfall”

空山新雨後
天気勉来秋
昭月松間照
清泉石上流

-- by Wang Wei (701-761)

-- Translated by Frank C Yue



Serene hills just after the rain –

The Autumn e’ening air’s crisp again.

The bright Moon among the pines spies ;

O’er rocks the clear spring water slides.

一帆風順

- to have a favourable wind all the way
- (of things) to run smoothly, without incident
- bon voyage!

Mandarin

(Pinyin): yīfānfēngshùn, yīfánfēngshùn
Cantonese (Jyutping): jat faan fung seon

Thank you for the nice translation. It almost sounds like a traditional verse.
