唐诗 - 霍尊

There was a country far off the sea,

on the land of the east.

I heard it when I was young,

Mom said it's called Tang.

I once dreamed a poet called Lee,

wrote a poem on my skin.

But I didn't know how to read

so I travel to find him.

I heard camel bell rings,

see the little trip light in the rain.

Far far away from hometown,

that's afraid that was too young.

Ah~ the kids reading in morning

Ah~ the bell tower rings

Ah~ I pass the temple

Ah~ the monks smile to me

They said there's a man called Lee,

his famous in Dynasty.

He too fond of poetry with his friends

that fragrance on the ground.

And also wine beyond cities

by the road mooch in the rain.

He said that may my main chance,

that I believe the boy would be found.

Ah~ I see great buildings

Ah~ In the poets drink and sing

Ah~ I pass the palace

Ah~ Flowers bloom around me

Ah~ I see Buddha touching the ceiling

Ah~ I see Emperor through the street

Ah~ I pass the lantern

Ah~ I light up poem on my skin

I saw man wear white in the rain,

just like the poet in my dream.

He took wine and read a poem,

Just like the lyrics of this song.

A poet written for the Tang.
