風蕭兮易水寒 	fēng xiāo xī yì shuǐ hán 	Shrill winds rise, waters cold
壯士去不復還 	zhuàngshì qù bù fù hái 	The hero shall go and never come home"风萧萧兮易水寒，壮士一去不复还。" This phrase is from the Song of Yi River. A more literal translation would be "The winds are shrill, Yi waters cold; the hero goes and never returns."
