HAI ZI (Zha Haisheng) - Facing the sea, flowers in spring
From tomorrow on, be a happy man
Raise horses, chop wood, see the world.
From tomorrow on, care about food and vegetables
I will have a house, facing the sea, and flowers in spring.
From tomorrow on, write to all my family
Tell them of my happiness
This spark of joy, its message
I will let everyone know
Give every river, every mountain, a warm name
You too, stranger, I wish you the best
Wish you a brilliant future
Wish you everlasting love
Wish you happiness in this world
Me, I just want to face the sea, and have flowers in spring.

This is a beautiful English version of Hai Zi's poem. Do you know who wrote this translation?
