Alone Looking At The Mountain 独坐敬亭山 
 众⻦高⻜尽，孤云独去闲。 相看两不厌，只有敬亭山。 The birds vanished in the sky. The last cloud fades away. We never tire of looking at each other, until only the mountain remains. Poem: Li Bai (701-762) Music: Dub Mentor

The Sound of the Night 夜的声音 夜的声音 当你握着我的手入眠 你我肌肤相融 如丝般柔滑 你我琴瑟和鸣 如这夜的声音 将黑暗溶解 The sound of the night, When you hold my hand in your sleep Is deeper than well, and smoother than silk Your skin melts to mine, My heart tunes with yours The sounds of the night, Make the darkness dissolve Words and music: Dub Mentor Chinese version: Yao Xu

lyrics

A Chaste Lady's Monologue 节妇吟 君知妾有夫，赠妾双明珠。 感君缠绵意，系在红罗襦。 
妾家高楼连苑起，良人执戟明光里。 知君用心如日月，事夫誓拟同生死。 
 还君明珠双泪垂，恨不相逢未嫁时。 You know I love my husband best, yet you sent me two bright pearls. I hang them on my red silk vest, so grateful I am for your good will. You see my house overlooks the royal garden, and my husband guards the palace, halberd in hand. I know your heart is noble as the sun in the skies, but I have sworn to serve my husband all my life. With your twin pearls I send back two tears from my eyes. Why did we not meet before I was made his wife. Poem: Zhang Ji (766-830) Music: Dub Mentor
