Quiet Night Thoughts: A Dialogue Between Li Bai and Shakepeare

床前明月光 疑是地上霜 举头望明月 低头思故乡 举头望明月 低头思故乡 举头望明月 低头思故乡 Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments Will hum about mine ears; and sometimes voices That, if I then had waked after long sleep Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming The clouds methought would open and show riches Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked I cried to dream again The bright moonlight falls upon my bed Mistaking it for frost upon the ground I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon lowering my head , I think of my hometown The moon by this time was well up, and there by a fountain I sat my down and took a drink of the water And thought I would not go to bed again But wait the morning sun 举头望明月 低头思故乡 The moon by this time was well up, and there by a fountain I sat my down and took a drink of the water Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments Will hum about mine ears; and sometimes voices That, if I then had waked after long sleep Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming The clouds methought would open and show riches Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked I cried to dream again And thought I would not go to bed again But wait the morning sun Quiet Night Thoughts: A Dialogue Between Li Bai and Shakespeare A combined lyric using Li Bai' 静夜思 and lines from Shakespeare's The Tempest
