Yunyan Gu Poet Imagism

In the Middle of the Night, My Hearts Feels the Most Wonderful

In the middle of the night
My heart feels the most wonderful
Without the hustle and bustle of the day
Without the secular noisy
Thus, I can drink wine and recite poetry with LI Bai about Romance (Note: Li Bai is one of the most famous ancient Chinese Romantic poets)  
I can speak my mind freely with Zhuangzi about life (Note: Zhuangzi, is an influential ancient Chinese philosopher)

In the middle of the night
My heart feels the most wonderful
I can touch my heart gently to say “Darling, here you are”
I can feel the tenderness of Beethoven’s “For Alice”
I can share the passion of Mozart's “Symphony of Destiny”

My heart feels so wonderful
When the lights are turned off
Only the moon light
Throwing into the window frames
Touching my tiring body softly
Kissing my dry lips gently 

Only in the middle of the night 
My heart feels so wonderful
I imagine my dreamed lover affectionately smiling to me 
Sweet like a surge of springs
Subtle like a beautiful rainbow

Only in the middle of the night
My heart feels so wonderful
I dance with beautiful ladies in the Moon, 
I kiss the stars with the blue sky 
The Moon casts her tenderness to me
The stars whisper to me secretly 
I am like a newborn baby 
With the love of the universe 
Sleeping slowly and deeply

Only in the middle of the night 
My heart feels the most wonderful
