Li Bai - Pouring Myself Drinks Alone at Midnight lyrics

Amid the flowers — a flask of wine I pour alone — no company I raise my cup to invite the moon Then moon, my shadow and I are three But no the moon knows not how to drink And my shadow does naught but follow me Yet I quickly make friends of moon and shadow Enjoy what spring there may yet be I sing — the moon just maunders on I dance —my shadow flails away Still lucid — we share in common pleasure Blind drunk — each goes his separate way Let us join to roam beyond all cares And meet afar in the Milky Way
