There is another world, other than/ this one we choose to live in.Li Bai
2
No one understands now. Those who couldhear a song this deeply vanished long ago.Li Bai
3
And sorrows return, though we drown them with wine, Since the world can in no way answer our craving, I will loosen my hair tomorrow and take to a fishingboat.Li Bai

A pity it is evening, yet I do love the water of this springseeing how clear it is, how clean;rays of sunset gleam on it, lighting up its ripples, making itone with those who travelthe roads; I turn and facethe moon; sing it a song, thenlisten to the sound of the windamongst the pines.Li Bai

You ask why I make my home in the mountain forest, and I smile, and am silent, and even my soul remains quiet:it lives in the other worldwhich no one owns. The peach trees blossom, The water flows.Li Bai
