Special Interlude: Song of Everlasting Regret

[x_los]

 
First off, w h a t a title? Don't skimp on the drama, Bai Juyi: tell me how you really feel. 

"Composed by Bai Juyi in the year 806, The Song of Everlasting Regret (or Sorrow) details the events surrounding the death of the lady Yang Guifei during the Anshi Rebellion in 755. Yang Guifei was the beloved concubine of the Emperor Xuanzong of Tang." 

This is an approachable Tang dynasty poem of a little under 150 lines. Just read the above translation, and thought if anyone else had thoughts, this would be a good place to put them.
