Shui Guang Lian Yan
水光瀲滟
for SATB chorus
2014
Drinking on the lake; sunny at first, then rains
Ripples glisten away... charming under sunlight,
Mountain veiled by emptying haze... wonder in rain.
If one is to compare the West Lake to Xī Shī*,
She is just as entrancing, with make-up or without.
- Sū Shì (1037-1101)
《飲湖上初晴後雨》
水光瀲灩晴方好，
山色空濛雨亦奇。
欲把西湖比西子，
淡妝濃抹總相宜。
﹣宋．蘇軾（1037﹣1101）
