PradeepSays: “Sent as a present from Annam
A red cockatoo.
Colored like the peach-tree blossom,
Speaking with the speech of men.
And they did to it what is always done
To the learned and eloquent.
They took a cage with stout bars
And shut it up inside.”
― Bai Juyi

Bai Juyi (772 – 846), tr. by Frank Watson

So, would you have a cup with me and stay?

Poochigian: Returning Late
The mountain road is rough; the sun is going down.
A crow lands on a frosted tree

I won’t get home before night falls, but I don’t care.
Three cups of heated wine in me,
I feel like I’m already there.
—Bai Juyi

tommazanec: There are 2 ways to resolve this:
1) English lit scholars add "in 19th-cent England" to their titles
2) Sinologists are allowed to make sweeping claims about literature based on reading a handful of poems by, say, Bai Juyi, Li Shangyin, and Wen Tingyun.
I'd be happy with either

DragonWong2024: From the Ode to Pipa by Poet Bai Juyi in the Tang Dynasty (618-907)
Next autumn, I will see off the guests at the mouth of Pukou district of Nanjing City, Jiangsu. I'll hear the sound of those who play the pipa in the boat at night.

DragonWong2024: I'll hear the sound of capital city, Chang'an (the ancient name of Xi'an, Shaanxi). When I asked her, she's originally a daughter of Chang'an. She learnt the pipa...when she grew older, she became a woman of Jia family.

iIlusionat: Very weak argumentation throughout the book, very strangely written overall. Especially unconvinced by the Bai Juyi chapter. Fails at overcoming the traditional historical resources. Good for anecdotes though.
wxxb10: Fair South Recalled
Bai Juyi
Fair Southern shore
With scenes I much adore,
At sunrise riverside flowers more red than fire,
In spring green river waves grow as blue as sapphire.
Which I can't but admire.
malkintr4sh: When mind's gathered clear calm ch'i,
wood can make such sudden song of it,
and after lingering echoes die away,
song fading into depths of autumn night,
you suddenly hear the source of change,
all heaven and earth such depths of clarity.
Bai Juyi, trans. David Hinton

Swarthyface: teaching bai juyi's 白居易 "song of unending sorrow" 長恨歌 (806 AD) in fourth-year seminar tomorrow but it's been a while and i've forgotten everything that i once knew about classical chinese poetry; time to review my excellent introduction:
timtimtmi: also I'm on the same issue as Bai Juyi lol
tomnewhall: It turns out that, like many Japanese expressions, it's origins are likely Chinese. Reference works claim that this comes from a poem by by Bai Juyi 白居易 called Hemeng youchunshi yibai yun 和夢遊春詩一百韻...
tommazanec: Read the whole thread to learn how a line in a Bai Juyi poem, alluding to Buddhist scriptures, became a proverbial expression in Japanese.
josephlamport: Essentially
I love this poem
By Bai Juyi because
He sounds just like
A Tang poet stuck inside
A modern mind body

frog_well_: Many poets have written about flowers falling into the water and ascribed them a certain poetic meaning - that the meeting is fated (be it romantic or otherwise). However, Bai juyi writes otherwise.
