Fusang1, Fengtian2, Longtan3，
Young ducks roam the Milky Way4.
Where do I go now?
I haven't dreamed of Yokosuka5.
Where? Where?
The stone lanterns are dim6.

















1 Fusang, one of the spiritual places in Chinese mythology, legend has it that on the Far East sea, the Fusang
tree is made up of two large mulberry trees that support each other. The sun goddess Xihe drove up from here
for her son Jin Wu (three-legged crow, the spirit of the sun).
2 Literally an “abundant field”, I can’t place it in Chinese mythology. As Japanese kanji, the characters spell out
the name Toyota.
3 Longtan is an ancient town in Nanjing, with a history of more than 500 years, beautiful scenery and
outstanding people. According to the "Jurong County Chronicle": "The back of the dragon pan, there is a water
pool called Longtan", which is the origin of the name of Longtan Town.
4 A possible reference to the myth of the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, two young lovers forbidden to see each
other. They were banished to opposite sides of the Milky Way and only allowed to see each other once a year.
In ancient Chinese culture, a pair of mandarin ducks were a metaphor for lovers.
5 Yokosuka, located on the Miura Peninsula in the southeastern part of Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, is famous
for its exotic townscape and sightseeing spots unique to a military port city.
Not only does it face the sea, but it also has a unique mountain and sea landscape.
6 Stone lanterns were the earliest lamps used by ancient Chinese.  Originally, they were formless, but in the
Warring States Period, began to be shaped into animal figurine lamps such as monkey lanterns, lion lanterns,
sheep lanterns, but also figurine lamps of various shapes, geometric lanterns, floral pattern lamps, etc. They
either symbolised a certain power, or represented auspiciousness.
