★ Wining and Dining in My Hometown

☆ Poetry by Liu Xiyi (651? -680? , Tang Dynasty, China)
☆ Translation by Luo Zhihai (1954-, China)


When the wine is made we must drink
Spring again but the temples been grey
Wish I drunk in thousand days
To relieve my century worry
More green grass in my old village
But the new friends all in the white heads now
Lamp towards the wind easy to black out
In the river the moon can’t stay
Ji Dan of Zhou bustled up
Confucius of Lu bustled about
All my life can be free a few days
To travel under the sun

★ 故园置酒

☆ 刘希夷 诗


酒熟人须饮
春还鬓已秋
愿逢千日醉
得缓百年忧
旧里多青草
新知尽白头
风前灯易灭
川上月难留
卒卒周姬旦
栖栖鲁孔丘
平生能几日
不及且遨游
