夜宿山寺

李 白

危楼高百尺，手可摘星辰。

不敢高声语，恐惊天上人。

李白（701年－762年），字太白，号青莲居士，又号“谪仙人”，是唐代伟大的浪漫主义诗人，被后人誉为“诗仙”。据《新唐书》记载，李白为兴圣皇帝（凉武昭王李暠）九世孙，与李唐诸王同宗。其人爽朗大方，爱饮酒作诗，喜交友。

LI Bai (701-762), Venus by courtesy name and Green Lotus and Exiled Immortal by literary names, an excellent romantic poet in the Tang dynasty, has been praised as “God of Poetry”. According to New Book of Tang, Li descended from Emperor Xingsheng (i.e. Li Hao, Lord Martial Glare of Liang), and had the same ancestry with the royal family, the Li House in the Tang dynasty. He was hearty, generous, and keen on drinking, composing poems and making friends. 

Putting Up for the Night in a Mountain Temple 

By LI Bai

Tr. ZHAO Yanchun

The tower is like a towering peak；

I may pick up a star on high.

In a loud voice I dare not speak,

Lest I frighten those in the sky.
