Chinese chamber folk, spacious string-and-flute separation; silvery female alto in a comfortable low-middle register, clear straight-tone Mandarin with restrained slow cadence vibrato; gentle flowing seven-beat pattern, long phrases with breath spaces and melodic turns; xiao and nylon guitar share a small pentatonic hook, with sparse zhongruan and cello replies, soft warm bass, featherlight hand percussion, and complete instrumental opening, interlude, and outro.
Lyrics & section notes
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
五色令人目盲，五音令人耳聾，五味令人口爽，馳騁畋獵令人心發狂，
難得之貨令人行妨。
是以聖人為腹不為目，故去彼取此。
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Final Reprise]
五色令人目盲，五音令人耳聾，五味令人口爽，馳騁畋獵令人心發狂，
難得之貨令人行妨。
是以聖人為腹不為目，故去彼取此。
[Instrumental Outro]
