1. A Summer Day
Language:
English

Naked I lie in the green forest of summer...
Too lazy to wave my white-feathered fan.
I hang my cap on a crag,
And bare my head to the wind that comes
Blowing through the pine trees.

Blue water ... a clear moon ...
In the moonlight the white gerons are flying.
Listen! Do you hear the girls who gather water chestnuts?
They are going home in the night, singing.

Language:
English
Authorship
Based on
Yonder the mountain flowers are out.
We drink together, you and I.
One more cup - one more cup - still one more cup!
Now I am drunk and drowsy, you had better go;
But come to-morrow morning, if you will, with the harp!

Based on
Cool is the autumn wind
Clear the autumn moon,
The blown leaves heap up and scatter again;
A raven, cold stricken, starts from his roost.
Where are you, beloved? - When shall I see you once more?
Ah, how my hearts aches to-night - this hour.
Input by Peter Donderwinkel
