Lake Tai is a large lake near Shanghai. It’s central, so it has many commercial connections, and because it’s shallow, it’s a peaceful place to visit. The Chinese folk song Boat on Lake Tai (太湖船) draws a picture of a peaceful scene, where a small boat glides across the water. You’ll enjoy that peacefulness when you play our arrangement for three to five octaves of handbells.
| 山青水明幽静静 湖心飘来风一阵呀 行呀行呀, 进呀进 黄昏时候人行少 半空月影水面摇呀 行呀行呀, 进呀进 |
In the tranquility by the green mountains and the clear water, a breeze wafts over from the center of the lake. >Going, going; moving on. >In the twilight few people are around, The image of the half-risen moon shimmers on the surface of the water, Going, going; moving on.(From Learn Chinese Weekly) |
