Poetry
.
Yang Jiong (Tang Dynasty)
Horse iron even money, Chang'an Xia teenager. The emperor is as flat as water, and the official road is as straight as a string.
Night jade makeup axle, autumn gold cast horse whip. Wind and frost but self-preservation, poor to the emperor.

Facing the sea, spring blossoms bloom
Haizi (Modern)
From tomorrow onwards, be a happy person
Feed the horses, chop wood, and travel the world
From tomorrow, care for grain and vegetables
I have a house facing the sea and spring blossoms
From tomorrow onwards, communicate with every loved one
Tell them about my happiness
That lightning of happiness told me
I will tell everyone
Give every river and every mountain a warm name
Stranger, I bless you too
May you have a bright future
May you have a lover who will eventually become a dependent
May you be happy on earth
I just want to face the sea and blossom in spring
