Li Bai: In Xuan City, Cry Out For the Master Winemaker

 

In Xuan City, Cry Out For the Master Winemaker

 

苦 宣 城 善 酿 纪 叟
纪 叟 黄 泉 里
还 应 酿 老 春。
夜 台 无 李 白
沽 酒 与 何 人?
Ku Xuan Cheng Shan Niang Ji Sou

Ji sou huang quan li
Huan ying niang zhe chun.
Ye tai wu li bai
Gu jiu yu he ren?

 

In Xuan City, Cry Out For the Master Winemaker

The old master already inside the Yellow Springs netherworld
He should return to make his old spring wine.
If the underworld terraces are without Li Bai
Then to what person can he sell his wine to?

 

Notes:

Xuan City:  Located in southwest Anhui Province within an area of archaeological remains that are four thousand years old.
