LOVE 972 早安！玉建煌崇：生查子·元夕
This classic Chinese lyric poem Sheng Zha Zi - Yuan Xi uses the Lantern Festival as a backdrop to contrast two moments separated by a year. Through the simple juxtaposition of "last year" and "this year," it expresses the timeless sadness of lost love and the poignant realization that while the moon and lanterns remain unchanged, human relationships do not. It remains one of the finest examples of Song Dynasty lyric poetry.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
