Drinking Song for Bridge Players

Mountain Drinking Song

To drown the ancient sorrows,

we drank a hundred jugs of wine

there in the beautiful night.

We couldn’t go to bed with the moon so bright.

Then finally the wine overcame us

and we lay down on the empty mountain–

the earth for a pillow,

and a blanket made of heaven.

Li T’ai-Po

tr.Hamill

This was suggested by my good friend Guy Coutanche.
