Heart-Mind Busy With Thoughts and Emotions: (Beginning of Original Music)
心 重 数 茎: 开 元 乐
心 事 数 茎 白 发
生 涯 一 片 青 山。 空 山 有 雪 相 待
野 路 无 人 自 还。
Xin Shi Shu Jing: (Kai Yuan Yue)
Xin shi shu jing bai fa
Sheng ya yi pian qing shan. Kong shan you xue xiang dai
Ye lu wu ren zi huan.
Heart-Mind Busy With Thoughts and Emotions: (Beginning of Original Music)
Heart-mind busy with thoughts and emotions, white hair emerges
I would renounce my present life for just a thin slice of the green mountains. Empty snow-capped mountains, we could entertain each other
Open country roads without people would eventually force my return.
Notes:
Li Yu wrote this poem from a Song-held prison.
