Home Town Blues
I like this poem by Lee Bai, a famous poet from Tang Dynasty. It rekindles my sentimental recollections of my home town - Taiping.
( Mandarin Version )
Chuang Cheam Ming Yat Kuang,
Yee shi tee xang shuang,
Chuang Cheam Ming Yat Kuang,
Yee shi tee xang shuang,
Chee tou wang ming yat,
Dee tou shi ku xiang.
( English Translations )
The bright moonlight lits the bed's front,
I mistaken it as frost on the ground.
Raisng my head and looking at the bright moon,
Bowing my head, I think of my home town.
