Romantic Chinese style music, Graceful Chinese ink painting
Love Jay Chou’s music, not only for the melodious lyrics and poetic words but also for the sweet, tangible, cherish and happy memories from our childhood. Jay Chou’ songs convey the centuries-old Chinese history and culture. The original forgotten realms of beauty and all ages that floated upon the stream of life and love are being awakened. Now, have a taste of “The Tea made by Grandpa” which has the flavor of home just like a landscape painting in black ink. Enjoy the song and Sunday!
Chinese Gao Shi Painting
The Tea made by Grandpa
The tea made by grandpa
Has the flavour of home
The tea made by Lu Yu
Heard that he didn’t want fame and fortune
The tea made by grandpa
Has the flavour of home
The tea made by Lu Yu
Is like a landscape painting in black ink
Mountain springs
Flowing on the earth’s surface
Starting from a long, long time ago
I have a childish face
Spring water is absorbed into the mine layer
On top of the cedar wood tree seedling planted by grandpa
I can still somewhat remember that year
On a rainy day
That seven-year-old me was hiding in the attic, but really
Wanted to play on the swing
Grandpa was smoking
Saying that Tang Dynasty’s Lu Yu wrote three scrolls for the book on tea
Been passed down for a thousand years
* (remember) That day
I was reading the dictionary
Looking up some word
To describe a matter has long passed
The edge of the sky
Is it across from the corner of the sea
I know that when I was nine, I realized that I was wasting time
This tea table’s cedar wood’s horizontal prints
Has 23 tree rings
On the other side of the lens, captures my mature face
Going through these years
The callus on grandpa’s hands
When soaked in water, there will be tea color spreading
# The tea made by grandpa
Has the flavour of home
(No way to criticize it, its taste and flavor are not bad)
The tea made by Lu Yu
Heard that he didn’t want fame and fortune
(He leads a skinny horse to travel around the world)
The tea made by grandpa
Has the flavor of home
(His head full of white hair, when drinking tea not allowed to talk)
The tea made by Lu Yu
Is like a landscape painting in black ink
(Tang Dynasty’s thousand-year wind and sand, still blowing now)
