My old friend Jia Chun asked me while drinking to ask the moon when she first appeared. We can’t touch her, but she touches us. She follows us everywhere at night. When the ancients looked at her, she was the same as she is today. People disappear like puddles after it rains, but she remains, bright as ever. I only wish, when we sing and drink, that she would always shine on our cups.
