A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Hills of Han, Slumber on! The sunlight, dying, Lingers on your terraced tops; Yellow stream and willow sighing, Field of twice ten thousand crops Breathe their misty lullabying, Breathe a life that never stops. Spin your chart of ancient wonder, Fold your hands within your sleeve. Live and let live, work and ponder ,B etradition, dream, believe .. So abides your ancient plan, Hills of Han! Hills of Han, What sthis filament goes leaping Pole to pole and hill to hill? What these strips of metal creeping Where the dead have lain so still? What this wilder thought thats seeping Where was peace and gentle will? Smoke of mill on road and river, Roar of steam by temple wall .. .D rop the arrow in the quiver .. .B ow to Buddha. ..
