锦瑟 Brocade Zither Li Shangyin
Li Shangyin (c. 813–c. 858) Tang Dynasty
锦瑟无端五十弦,一弦一柱思华年。
庄生晓梦迷蝴蝶,望帝春心托杜鹃。
沧海月明珠有泪,蓝田日暖玉生烟。
此情可待成追忆,只是当时已惘然
The brocade zither has fifty strings, no less,
each string and pillar brings youth to mind.
Zhuangzi at dawn dreamt of wandering butterflies.
King Wang's passion commited to the crying cuckoo.
A bright moon shines over the vast sea, weeping pearls,
the sun warms Lantian's jade green haze.
Each emotion can be cherished as a memory,
in just that moment, already gone.
