Translation - English Prelude to Water Melody -Su Shi
When shall the moon in fullness appear?
I raise my cup and question the azure sphere.
In the heavenly palace, time's current I don't know, Tonight, I ponder, what year does it bestow?
I yearn to ride the wind and so return, Yet fear the jade and pearl towers, where chill winds churn.
In dance and play with my crystalline shadow, Can it rival the mortal world's vibrant tableau?
Twirling 'round the vermilion tower, drawing the silk window low, casting light that sleep disallows.
Why should resentment linger, when parting always accompanies its rounded glow?
Humans endure sorrow, joy, hellos and goodbyes, the moon waxes and wanes in its skies, An ancient conundrum, this dichotomy implies.
Yet, I yearn for endless days, sharing the moon's beauty over a thousand miles.
