DRINKING ALONE WITH THE MOON

　　Li Bai

　　From a pot of wine among the flowers

　　I drank alone. There was no one with me --

　　Till, raising my cup, I asked the bright moon

　　To bring me my shadow and make us three.

　　Alas, the moon was unable to drink

　　And my shadow tagged me vacantly;

　　But still for a while I had these friends

　　To cheer me through the end of spring…

　　I sang. The moon encouraged me.

　　I danced. My shadow tumbled after.

　　As long as I knew, we were boon companions.

　　And then I was drunk, and we lost one another.

　　…Shall goodwill ever be secure?

　　I watch the long road of the River of Stars.

　　月下獨(dú)酌

　　李白

　　花間一壺酒， 獨(dú)酌無(wú)相親。

　　舉杯邀明月， 對(duì)影成三人。

　　月既不解飲， 影徒隨我身。

　　暫伴月將影， 行樂(lè)須及春。

　　我歌月徘徊， 我舞影零亂。

　　醒時(shí)同交歡， 醉后各分散。

　　永結(jié)無(wú)情游， 相期邈云漢。
