Goddess Chang E Ascends to the Moon
Legend says that there were once ten suns in the sky, which made plants wither, water in rivers and lakes run dry. It’s too hot to live on the sun.
Houyi, a young man who was good at archery was sympathetic with people’s torture so he decided to save them. He took out his bow, ascended up to the peak of the Kunlun Mountain and shot down nine of the ten suns one by one, and he might have shot the last one if it was not called off by others. Thus the severe drought was gone.
Houyi thus was respected and honored by people as a hero. Young men who were fond of archery flocked to him to learn shooting.
Houyi later married a pretty lady called Chang’er and lived a happy life with her.
One day on his way to a friend’ home in the Kunlun Mountain, Houyi came across the Heavenly Empress. Houyi was enamored of the happy life with his wife and wanted to be with her forever so he asked the Heavely Empress to give him some elixir. The elixir was strictly controlled off normal people. The Heavely Empress, however, moved by Houyi’s contribution and affection to love and gave him one. The drug was said very powerful and people who took it can fly to the heaven and became a immortal immediately.
However, the content was only enough for one person and Houyi was reluctant to leave his beloved wife alone on the earth so he gave the elixir to Chang’er to preserve and wanted to seek another one for his wife. Chang’er carefully stored it in a wooden box while her action was peeked by the evil Fengmeng-one of his husband’s adherents.
Three days afterward, Houyi lead his disciples to go out for hunting but Fengmeng who wanted to steal the elixir while Houyi was way, stayed at home deliberately.
No sooner as Houyi left his house, Fengmeng knocked into the courtyard where Chang’er was working. He wielded his glitter sword and threatened Chang’er to give him the elixir.
Chang’e had no better idea than swallowed the elixir herself.
As soon as she took it, chang’er flew from her house toward the heave and finally landed on the moon.
Houyi was told what was happening in the evening when he returned home from bumper hunting. He was astonished, anguished and then very anger so he decided to kill the evil man. But Fengmeng had fled away. Chang’er was transferred to the moon and has lived there since ever.
Chang'e decides to live on the moon because it is nearest to the earth. There she lives a simple and contented life. Even though she is in Heaven, her heart remains in the world of mortals. Never does she forget the deep love she has for Hou Yi.
she got two pills: one is enough for immortality and two would turn her into a goddess.
She took both as she wanted to see the Heavenly Emperor to lobby for Houyi, who was himself a god demoted from the pantheon (along wth Chang'e) for shooting down the nine suns.
Alas, she never got the chance and was escorted to the moon before reaching the Heavenly Palace.
In that misty morning when I saw your smiling face You only looked at me and I was yours But when I turned around you were nowhere to be seen You had walked away and closed the door When will I see you again When will the sky start to rain When will the stars start to shine When will I know that you're mine Did I ever meet you in the sunshine And when we were both a thousand years away Did I ever hold you in the moon light Did we make every minute last another day On a cold December night I gave my heart to you And by the summer you were gone Now as the days grow old and the stars will start to dim All I have are memories and this song When will I see you again When will the sky start to rain When will the stars start to shine When will I know that you're mine When will I see you again (again) When will the sky start to rain (When will the sky...) When will the stars start to shine When will I know that you're mine In that misty morning I saw your smiling face.

嫦娥 （唐） 李商隐
云母屏风烛影深，长河渐落晓星沉。
嫦娥应悔偷灵药，碧海青天夜夜心。
哈哈哈，我是来鱼目混珠的，先礼后兵露峥嵘。请教大师们这首李商隐的汉诗如何翻译？这首诗是我在上山下乡前，中学没学可上时，不太记得是读「古文观止」，还是「唐诗三百首」的时候，就被此诗作的意境魅力迷住了。后来，不论是在麦田和原野，还是在冰雪的林海；不论是在古城的近旁，还是他乡的驿站，只要能看到月亮就会想象着嫦娥在月宫，望着人间地球，那无边孤寂的身影。太棒了，这首古诗！

Fale Tale
Michael Learns to Rock
In that misty morning when I saw your smiling face
You only looked at me and I was yours
But when I turned around you were nowhere to be seen
You had walked away and closed the door
When will I see you again
When will the sky start to rain
When will the stars start to shine
When will I know that you're mine
Did I ever meet you in the sunshine
And when we were both a thousand years away
Did I ever hold you in the moon light
Did we make every minute last another day
On a cold December night I gave my heart to you
And by the summer you were gone
Now as the days grow old and the stars will start to dim
All I have are memories and this song
When will I see you again
When will the sky start to rain
When will the stars start to shine
When will I know that you're mine
When will I see you again (again)
When will the sky start to rain (When will the sky...)
When will the stars start to shine
When will I know that you're mine
In that misty morning I saw your smiling face.
She loved.
