The Immortal Poet of Tang Dynasty China. His exuberant, wine-soaked verses on friendship, nature, and the moon are considered the pinnacle of Chinese classical poetry.
"We sit together, the mountain and me, until only the mountain remains."
"A cup of wine, under the flowering trees; I drink alone, for no friend is near."
"Life passes like a flash of lightning whose blaze barely lasts long enough to see."
We sit together, the mountain and me, until only the mountain remains.
— Li Bai
A cup of wine, under the flowering trees; I drink alone, for no friend is near.
Life passes like a flash of lightning whose blaze barely lasts long enough to see.
"Life passes like a flash of lightning whose blaze barely lasts long enough to se..."
