My Journey with the Eight Greats | A Walk Through the Ji Da Shanren Memorial Hall


Pass by the Eight Great Mountains Man Memorial Hall

Author: Zeng Long

 

Time has passed seven o’clock eight minutes.

The silent ones should forget those who deserve silence.

The soul at the appointed hour,

Don't forget to turn off the car lights.

 

The dim, ambiguous flicker of light in the glow,

It says, borrowing half a second of lingering warmth,

Illuminate a storyteller,

And the unexpected chime of bells, startling from afar,

 

It’s just that in meeting and parting, we can’t tell the difference.

The person who mistook tears for laughter,

Fill a glass with strong liquor,

Pour it into the twilight and let it boil, awakening the moistness of the green hills.

 

Borrowing a solitary boat to ask,

The rivulets of the long river vying for flow,

A lone bird in the setting sun,

It stopped at 7:08.
