                  ---Li Shangyin

The east wind sighs, the fine rains come:
Beyond the pool of water-lilies, the noise of faint thunder.
A gold toad gnaws the lock. Open it, burn the incense.
A tiger of jade pulls the rope. Draw from the well and escape.

Fairy Of The Magpie Bridge
                                   ---Qin Guan [ Song Dynasty (960-1279)]

Among the beautiful clouds,
Over the heavenly river,
Crosses the weaving maiden.

A night of rendezvous,
Across the autumn sky.

Dao De Jing (3)

Chapter3

If we stop looking for 'persons of superior morality' (hsien) to put in power, there will be no more jealousies among the people. If we cease to set store by products that are hard to get , there will be no more thieves. If the people never see such things as excite desire, their hearts will remain placid and undisturbed. Therefore the Sage rules
  By emptying their hearts
  And filling their bellies,

Chapter2

It is because every one under Heaven recognizes beauty as beauty,that the idea of ugliness exists.
And equally if every one recognized virtue as virtue, this would merely create fresh conceptions of wickedness.

Difficult and easy complete one another.
Long and short test one another;

Rush(Zhu Ziqing)
Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return; willow trees may have died back, but there is a time of regreening; peach blossoms may have fallen, but they will bloom again. Now, you the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return? - If they had been stolen by someone, who could it be? Where could he hide them? If they had made the escape themselves, then where could they stay at the moment?

I don’t know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my hands are getting empty. Taking stock silently, I find that more than eight thousand days have already slid away from me. Like a drop of water from the point of a needle disappearing into the ocean, my days are dripping into the stream of time, soundless,

Don't Know Which Direction The Wind Is Blowing

Don't Know Which Direction The Wind Is Blowing
---By Xu Zhimo

I don't know
Which direction the wind is blowing--
I am in a dream,
In the dream's gentle wave lingering.

I don't know
Which direction the wind is blowing--
I am in a dream,
Her tenderness, my ecstasy outbreaking.

I don't know
Which direction the wind is blowing--
I am in a dream,
Sweetness is the glory in the dream glittering.


我不知道风是在哪一个方向吹
---徐志摩

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹----
我是在梦中,
在梦的轻波里依洄。

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹——
我是在梦中,
她的温存,我的迷醉。

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹——
我是在梦中,
甜美是梦里的光辉。

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹——
我是在梦中,
她的负心,我的伤悲。

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹——
我是在梦中,
在梦的悲哀里心碎!

我不知道风
是在哪一个方向吹——
我是在梦中,
黯淡是梦里的光辉。
