月下独酌


             花间一壶酒 独酌无相亲  
             举杯邀明月 对影成三人。 
             月既不解饮 影徒随我身 
             暂伴月将影 行乐须及春。 
             我歌月徘徊 我舞影零乱 
             醒时同交欢 醉后各分散。 
             永结无情游 相期邈云汉。

Li Bai
Drinking alone with the moon
From a pot of wine among the flowers I drank alone. There was no one with me --
Till, raising my cup, I asked the bright moon To bring me my shadow and make us three.
Alas, the moon was unable to drink And my shadow tagged me vacantly;
But still for a while I had these friends To cheer me through the end of spring....
I sang. The moon encouraged me. I danced. My shadow tumbled after.
As long as I knew, we were boon companions. And then I was drunk, and we lost one another.
Shall goodwill ever be secure? I watch the long road of the River of Stars.

人面桃花

去年今日此门中
人面桃花相映红
人面不知何处去
桃花依旧笑春风

唐朝西元七九六年崔护

Cui hu
Face and plum blossoms :
This day last year under the city gates
plum blossoms shaded her tender face
where she has gone, I do not know
the tree, yet blooms as ever in the spring breeze.
Tang dynasty 796 AD

花间一壶酒 独酌无相亲 举杯邀明月 对影成三人。 月既不解饮 影徒随我身 暂伴月将影 行乐须及春。 我歌月徘徊 我舞影零乱 醒时同交欢 醉后各分散。 永结无情游 相期邈云汉。
