Boundless, The Sky Is So Blue; the Wilderness Seems Boundless, Too. 天蒼蒼，野茫茫，風吹草低見牛羊。 Poem by Frank Yue

CHI LE GE: SONG OF THE CHI LE
-- by Anon (Northern Dynasty)
-- Translated by Frank C Yue

The Chi Le plain out spreads by
Where the Yin Mountain does lie.
Like a woolen tent hangs the Sky,
Covering the Wilderness from on high.

Boundless, the Sky is so blue;
The Wilderness seems boundless, too.
Rippling through the pastures, north winds blow;
The grass bends low, the cattle and sheep, to show.


《敕勒歌》北朝民歌

敕勒川，陰山下，
天似穹廬，籠蓋四野。
天蒼蒼，野茫茫，
風吹草低見牛羊。

敕勒川，阴山下，
天似穹庐，笼盖四野。
天苍苍，野茫茫，
风吹草低见牛羊。
