If you like what I do, and want to see me make more of it, consider buying me a cup of coffee
Thought on a Quiet Night
By Li Bai
Translated by A.Z. Foreman
Before my bed tonight the moon shone down
I took it instead for frost upon the ground
I lift my head watching the mountain moon
I lower my head missing my northern home
