Li Bai · Early Departure from Baidi City with contemporary refrains · Dai Amei
Baidi Light Boat · Dai Amei
白帝轻舟·傣族阿妹A dawn departure beneath coloured clouds compresses a thousand-li journey into one day; the apes still call while the light boat has crossed ten thousand mountains. Dai Amei brings Li Bai's quatrain into a landscape ballad where swift water meets an unhurried voice.
Press play. Let it finish.
Hear Dai Amei's Baidi Light Boat: a new setting of Li Bai's Early Departure from Baidi City, with the complete song in a static-image film.
Lyrics
[Intro]朝辭白帝彩雲間，千里江陵一日還。[原詩]朝辭白帝彩雲間，千里江陵一日還。兩岸猿聲啼不住，輕舟已過萬重山。[Instrumental Interlude][Refrain]輕舟過，萬重山，一江雲影到人間。兩岸聲聲留不住，心隨流水過千山。白帝城，彩雲邊，清晨一別又經年。我把歌聲交給水，讓它替我到江南。[Final Refrain]兩岸猿聲啼不住，輕舟已過萬重山。輕舟過，萬重山，一聲阿妹到江南。Hear the crossing without erasing either shore.
The calls remain behind; the boat is already beyond the mountains
猿声还在身后，轻舟已经过了万重山The four lines place Baidi, coloured clouds, Jiangling and a one-day return on the same descending river. Calls from both banks continue after the light boat has crossed the mountains. Dai Amei does not chase that speed with a hurried beat. Hulusi, bamboo flute, guqin and soft strings give the landscape room to open: the boat moves forward, and the heart seems to travel more lightly with it.
Entrusting the song to water
把歌声交给水，让古诗有今天的回声Li Bai's quatrain appears in its marked poem section, with familiar lines returning in the intro and ending. Contemporary refrains add cloud shadows reaching the human world and a heart following the water past the mountains, stretching the poem's instant into a journey worth hearing again. A clear voice with mountain-like echoes holds both the openness of travel and the tenderness of looking back.
A raft faces the clouded mountains
竹筏面向云山，完整歌声与静态影像相伴This edition pairs the complete song with a static image of a bamboo raft, clouded mountains and water inside a weathered three-panel film strip. The on-film title is A Light Boat Past Ten Thousand Mountains. The opening couplet remains on screen rather than progressing through the song—a quiet visual companion to the full recording.
DAI AMEI
傣族阿妹Meet Dai Amei, Weiyang Sound's most extensive virtual-singer archive: 36 public works and thirty-one verified complete masters, now 31 / 31 playable in full. The newly opened Amei Sings Late Autumn retains all eight lines of Li Qingzhao's A Twig of Plum Blossom while separating its contemporary refrain and variation. Silver Bells to the Ganges keeps thirty contemporary positions, a hulusi / bansuri exchange, imagined-geography boundaries and the provider state of its triptych moon film visible. Frontier Moon, Lotus Picking at Southern Pond in Autumn, Clear Water River, Crossing the River for Lotus, Spring River under the Moon, One Moon over Chang’an and Hengtang Road continue the route through classical watersides, cross-cultural dialogue and urban homesickness, while all nine verified Nine Songs dossiers remain public.
