This is another song from Teresa's Album of Ancient Poetry.
The lyrics from this song are written by Li Houzhu (Chinese: 李後主; pinyin: Lǐ Hòuzhǔ; literally "The Latter Lord Li") (937--978), the last ruler of the Southern Tang Kingdom from 961 to 975. Li Houzhu devoted much of his time to pleasure-making and literature, and this is reflected in his early poems.
A second phase of Li's ci poems seems to have been the development of a sadder style after the death of his wife, in 964.However, his best-known, and saddest, poems were composed during the years after the Song formally ended his reign in 975 his regret for the lost kingdom and the pleasures it had brought him. He was poisoned by the Song emperor Taizong in 978.

What a song, classic and sad. This is the beauty of the great civilization of the Chinese. Teresa has voice and beauty to bring ton of emotion.

A very beautiful song from the "Light Exquisite Feeling" album. How can anyone not be completely swept away by her angelic voice and beauty wearing lovely Chinese period dress. A true singer and roll model for the ages! Our amazing angel, we love you more than you will ever know. ❤

Thank you, Brother. I'm glad you like it. The lyrics, as you know, were a poem written by an emperor held under house arrest. He was a better poet than a warrior. It was a rather sad poem and the costume Teresa wears in this video reflects that period.

Li Yu李煜(937-978 South Tang emperor，poet.After his country was destroyed, he was taken to the north.under house arrest.This poem was written and sung in this time.Finally, he was poisoned) poem name:corn poppy虞美人. adaptation song name:much sorrow几多愁 modern composer:谭建常 Tan Jan Chang 春花秋月何時了？往事知多少！ Spring blossoms, Autumn moon, till when they'd last? How much were things known of the past? 小樓昨夜又東風，故國不堪回首月明中。 East wind my attic swept again last night. I couldn't bear to recall my lost state in moon light! 雕闌玉砌應猶在，只是朱顏改。 Carved balustrades, jade stairs must still be there, But rosy cheeks has changed from fair. 問君能有幾多愁？恰似一江春水向東流。 Ask you how much sorrows can there be? Just like a river of Spring flowing east to sea!

Can a singer and her song be too beautiful? Teresa was and will always be the best, truly in a league all of her own. Thank you for this lovely post, your notes and the translation.

Hi, there, Sithuharrison3770, it's great to hear from you. I was a teenager when I first heard and liked Teresa's songs. She was also a teenager then, 5 years my senior. She passed on at the age of 42 in Thailand on May 8th, 1995. It's been many years, but her fans still remember her and the number of new fans grow daily. She was so much a part of my life as I see her on TV sometimes, hear her voice on the radio daily and read about her in magazines and dailies. Thank you for taking time to comment.
