床床前前明明月月光光
疑疑是是地地上上霜霜
舉举頭头望望明明月月
低低頭头思思故故鄉乡
About this text
Li Bai's most famous twenty characters — a traveller wakes, mistakes moonlight for frost, looks up at the moon and down into homesickness. The whole poem turns on one gesture: 舉頭 (raise the head) / 低頭 (lower it). Every child in China learns it by heart.
白話 · in plain Chinese
床前灑落一片明亮的月光，恍惚間還以為是地上結了霜。抬起頭望著天上的明月，低下頭來，心裡湧起對故鄉的思念。床前洒落一片明亮的月光，恍惚间还以为是地上结了霜。抬起头望著天上的明月，低下头来，心里涌起对故乡的思念。
