Lotus Songs at Southern Pond
采莲南塘
A small boat rests among a pond of lotus leaves as two Tang poems with the same title meet inside one contemporary song. Wang Changling discovers the gatherers through their voices; Li Bai widens the scene through laughter, reflected dress, lifted sleeves and the hesitant watcher on shore.
WHY THIS WORK STAYS · BEYOND THE ARTWORK
Hear it whole first. Then read why it remains.
01 · TWO POEMS, TWELVE CLASSICAL LINES
Not a collage around one famous phrase: four Wang Changling lines join eight by Li Bai
The source lyric sings all four lines of the second Lotus-Picking Song by Wang Changling, then all eight lines of Li Bai's poem with the same title. Wang's figures disappear among lotus leaves until their song reveals them; Li Bai extends the scene from women at Ruoye Stream to young men lingering beneath willows. Comparison with public Complete Tang Poems texts finds Wang's four lines unchanged. Li's block uses ‘stream-side’ and ‘fragrant sleeves’, while common witnesses read nearby-character variants and record ‘sleeves’ as an alternative to ‘fragrant lapels’. The page preserves those two loci rather than selling one witness as the sole true text. The twelve sung classical lines contain 107 characters and hash to 6edd8d66c0566ff6d45680197ece41e0b664a523b5d04fe9b244d2ba58f502f5.
02 · REPETITION AND NEW REFRAINS
The intro repeats an ancient couplet; the slow boat through Southern Pond is today's bridge
The complete 308-character source prompt hashes to 2558f3db4c6e7bc2ac9dbd524c78e1220640da1bd48f079d99cd4d5bac45ae4b. Its intro is not newly invented pseudo-classical verse: it repeats Wang Changling's opening couplet before three [Original Poem] blocks carry the two Tang poems. The Amei call by the water, the little boat crossing Southern Pond, the heart becoming clear as water and the low leaves with a distant song belong to the contemporary refrains and outro. Repetition and response join the historical texts without backdating new lines as Tang poetry.
SEVEN-DAY WINDOW · COMPLETE SONGS ONLY

UTC · 91-DAY STABLE ROTATION · NO PERSONAL TRACKING
Not a chart. A daily promise to hear one work properly.
The rotation claims neither hottest, best nor newest, stores no personal taste profile and never recounts a work because it appears under another dated URL. The same stable order returns after ninety-one days.
