Yuan Hongri Three Poems
By Chinese Poet Yuan Hongri Translated by Yuanbing Zhang The Stars of The Dawn When the sky gallops like the rivers you stand in the street of the city on the world look up at the sky and you could almost hear the singing of the stars summoning you in the depths of space. And the Heavens of the gods are towering lofty cities like the mountains on gold coast of time; And on the mammoth ship of platinum the rings of light twine around giant's necks of men and women their eyes are like the stars of the dawn. 2016.4.28 Only the Eternity is Equal to It I am a singer from the heavens my song is silent, only the soul can hear it. Those ancient gods are the mountains behind me, they gave me the flowers of millennium from paradise, let my song mellow and sweet as the smile of the heavens; let the face of time blush and lift the veil of death; let the ancient earth reveal the true face of gold. Oh, you'll see another you, as old as the sun, as young as the dawn his kingdom is huge and only the eternity is equal to it. 4.04.2015 My Heaven is Inside My Body My heaven is inside my body, my heaven is a great many, like stars in the night sky, with silver towers, huge edifices that look like sapphires , golden palaces, gardens of crystal. My body is bigger than the universe, countless gods and angels are my partners, as if they are countless myself. Neither time nor life and death in my words dawn and dusk are the same name, and sadness and joy are the same words. 11.08.2020 Bio:Yuan Hongri (born 1962) is a renowned Chinese mystic, poet, and philosopher.
