A Song Begins With Water Tune Poem by Haiqing Hua

Poet:Su, Shi(Acient China)
Tr by: Oliver Hua (Canada)

When will be there a full moon?
Dare to ask God only with wine in hand.
Knowing nothing about the heaven,
What year is the night?
I want to return with the wind,
However afraid the jade palaces so magnificient,
It is that height makes heavenly life so cold.

The dance with shadow hollows,
Amoon dance is unreal to earth:
It turns the red mansion,
It humbles the most colorful buildings,
It is the moon makes me fully sleepless tonight.
It is such a regret：
Why there is always a full moon when we depart？
People can depart in grief and reunion in joy,
The moon can be bright and dim as well as perfect and in disappearance,
It carried forward ever since the beginning of the time.
My wish is for us to be long,
So that we can share the moon even thousand miles apart!

水调歌头 苏轼
明月几时有？把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年？我欲乘风归去，又恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒。
起舞弄清影，何似在人间？转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨，何事长向别时圆？
人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。
