Revised version:
Smile Smiley
A regime exports many types of politico-business-military-tech espionages to the world, having an all-dimensional anti-espionage law passed on April 26, 2023. And then, a young stand-up comedian Mr. Li haoshi (House) was arrested for inappropriately using 8 words to joke about the not-so-good military combating ability of the CCP's PLA.
A regime exports many types of politico-business-military-tech espionages to the world, having an all-dimensional anti-espionage law passed on April 26, 2023. And then, a young stand-up comedian Mr. Li haoshi (House) was arrested for inappropriately using 8 words to joke about the not-so-good military combating ability of the CCP's PLA.
He has made several apologies to the government and was fined two million dollars for such a deed.
His company, necessarily, fired him.
Keep in mind - one party, one voice. The regime and the emperor are too perfect, delicate and fragile to be mocked.

1. 夢 / Old Folks at Home
Aug 7, 2018 夢 Old Folks at Home
Composer/作曲: Stephen C. Foster
Lyricist /作詞: 李叔同
Singer/清唱: Dr. Xena LCH #173
哀遊子煢煢其無依兮，在天之崖。 惟長夜漫漫而獨寐兮，時恍惚以魂馳。
夢偃臥搖籃以啼笑兮，似嬰兒時。 母食我甘酪與粉餌兮，父衣我綵衣。
月落烏啼，夢影依稀，往事知不知？
汨半生哀樂之長逝兮，感親之恩其永垂。
哀遊子愴愴而自憐兮，弔形影悲。 惟長夜漫漫而獨寐兮，時恍惚以魂馳。
夢揮淚出門辭父母兮，嘆生別離。 父語我眠食宜珍重兮，母語我以早歸。
月落烏啼，夢影依稀，往事知不知？
汨半生哀樂之長逝兮，感親之恩其永垂。
-----------------
Old Folks at Home
Way down upon the Swanee River, far, far away.
That's where my heart is turning ever.
That's where the old folks stay
All up and down the whole creation, Sadly I roam.
Still longing for the old plantation,
and for the old folks at home.
All the world is sad and dreary everywhere I roam.
Oh brother, how my heart grows weary,
far from the old folks at home Far from the old folks at home.
Chorus:
All 'round the little farm I wandered, When I was young Then many happy days I squandered, Many the songs I sung When I was playing with my brother, Happy was I Oh, take me to my kind old mother, There let me live and die One little hut among the bushes, One that I love Still sadly to my mem'ry rushes, No matter where I rove When shall I see the bees a humming, All 'round the comb When shall I hear the banjo strumming, Down by my good old home.

リンゴ追分 (蘋果園裡的少女; 懷念蘋果花/Nostalgic Apple Blossoms)
つがる娘は ないたとさ
つらい別れを ないたとさ
りんごの花びらが 風に散ったよな あああ……
-----------------------------
蘋果花瓣 迎風飄落
在那月夜裏 在那月夜裏 悄悄地 唉唉唉唉
津輕姑娘哭泣了 為那別離的苦澀哭泣著
蘋果花瓣 迎風飄落
啊啊啊…
(口白: 岩木山頂的綿綿白雲
輕輕地飄盪著 飄蕩著 飄浮過去
桃花開 櫻花開
緊接著 早開的蘋果花開時候
啊 啊 這是我們最快樂的時光
無情的雨點 折落了白花
這時節 令我想起死在東京的媽媽
我 我)
津輕姑娘哭了呀 那別離滋味 哭了呀
蘋果花瓣 散落在風中 啊…

3. 九段之母 (Japanese Song)
九段之母 (Japanese Song 九段の母) The Grieving Mother
Uploaded on Jan 17 (F), 2014 Sung by Crystal LCH #40
A Mother's sorrow with an ambivalent pride, saturated by a complex yet humble (reserved) grief unconsciously mingled with the powerful ideology internalized (or properly speaking, propagandized) through the Nationalism, Patriotism as well as Jingoism...
九段の母
作詞：石松秋二
作曲：佐藤富房
唄：Xena Crystal Huang
1 上野の駅から 九段まで かってしらない じれったさ 杖をとよりに
一日がかり せがれきたぞや 会いにきた
2 空をつくよな 大鳥居 こんな立派な おやしろに 神とまつられ
もったいなさよ 母は泣けます うれしさに
3 両手あわせて ひざまつき おがむはずみの おねんぶつ はっと気づいて
うろたえました せがれゆるせよ 田舎もの
4 鳶（とび）が鷹（たか）の子 うんだよで いまじゃ果報が
身にあまる 金鵄勲章が みせたいばかり 逢いに来たぞや 九段坂
支那事変後最愛の息子を国に捧げた母の心をテーマに昭 和１４年４月 浪曲的語りかけの詞と股旅調が肌身近くに感じたのか空前の大ヒット 戦地の兵士達にも この母の心に親しみと郷愁が湧き出でて親しまれた.
戦死した息子が祀られている靖国神社へ年老いた母が田舎から上京してくる[1]。母は息子を失った悲しみは表に出さず、立派なお社に祀られていることのもったいなさを口にする。そういった内容を男性である塩まさるが歌ったことで当時の兵士たちの心に響いて大ヒットとなった。
1939年4月（昭和14年），帝竹唱片發行了鹽政演唱的唱片。戰後以雙葉百合子的封面再次走紅。 一位老母親從鄉下來到東京參拜靖國神社，那裡供奉著她戰死的兒子。 這位母親並沒有表達她失去兒子的悲痛，而是談到被供奉在一個輝煌的神社中的榮重鋪陳。 一名男子叫塩まさる (Masaru Shio)，唱出了這樣的內容，引起了當時士兵的共鳴，一炮走紅。
ソ連からの引揚船が着くたびにいつでも見られた光景であったが、時間の経過とともに、毎回、同じような顔ぶれの人が桟橋の脇に立つ姿が見受けられるようになり、これがいつしか人々の目に止まり、マスコミによって「岸壁の母」として取り上げられ、たちまち有名になった。

4. 岸壁の母 (Japanese song, 1954年)
4. 岸壁の母 (Japanese song, 1954年)
(這是每一次蘇聯遣返船抵達時都能看到的場景，但隨著時間的推移，每次都能看到同樣的人站在碼頭邊，很是惹人注目，被群眾抱了起來被媒體譽為“碼頭之母”. It was a scene that could be seen whenever a repatriation ship from the Soviet Union arrived, but as time passed, the same people could be seen standing on the side of the pier every time. It caught the eye and was picked up by the mass media as the "mother of the quay" and became famous in no time.)

Smile Smiley:
Tranquil and beautiful music- The eleven-faced thousand-hands
Kannon / 觀音 (Avalokitesvara), or the Mercy Bodhisattva :
十一面观音根本咒
大悲咒 The Nīlakaṇṭha Dhāraṇī, also known as the Mahā Karuṇā (-citta) Dhāraṇī, Mahākaruṇika Dhāraṇī, or Great Compassion Dhāraṇī, (or Mantra)（梵語：Sanskrit - महा करुणा धारनी），全名千手千眼觀世音菩薩廣大圓滿無礙大悲心陀羅尼經大悲神咒，又稱大悲心陀罗尼（Mahā Karuṇā-citta Dhāranī）、千手千眼观音大悲咒（Sahasrabhuja Sahasranetra Avalokiteśvara Mahā Karuṇā Dhāranī）、千手千眼無礙大悲心陀羅尼、無礙大悲陀羅尼、廣大圓滿陀羅尼、滿願陀羅尼、隨心自在陀羅尼、救苦陀羅尼、延壽陀羅尼、滅惡趣陀羅尼、破惡業障陀羅尼、速超十地陀羅尼，有时也称青頸观音大悲咒（梵語 Sanskrit नीलकण्ठ धारनी，转写：Nīlakaṇṭha Dhāraṇī，义爲“青頸陀罗尼”，但有时也指千句大悲咒）；是关乎觀世音菩薩的经典《大悲心陀羅尼經》中的主要部分，汉传共有八十四句，為梵語構成的咒文章句。
The dhāraṇī is thought to have originally been a recitation of names and attributes of Harihara (a composite form of the Hindu gods Vishnu and Shiva; Nīlakaṇṭha 'the blue-necked one' is a title of Shiva) said to have been recited by Avalokiteśvara, who was sometimes portrayed as introducing popular non-Buddhist deities (e.g. Hayagriva, Cundi) into the Buddhist pantheon by reciting their dhāraṇīs. Over time, these deities became considered to be the various forms or incarnations of Avalokiteśvara, who was described in texts such as the Lotus Sutra as manifesting himself in different forms according to the needs of different individuals; the dhāraṇī thus came to be considered as addressed to Avalokiteśvara as Nīlakaṇṭha, now understood to be a manifestation of the bodhisattva. From Nīlakaṇṭha Avalokiteśvara, this particular dhāraṇī eventually became associated with another of Avalokiteśvara's forms, namely the thousand-armed (sahasra-bhuja) one, and became attached to Buddhist texts concerning the thousand-armed Avalokiteśvara.
Different versions of this dhāraṇī, of varying length, exist; the shorter version as transliterated into Chinese characters by Indian monk Bhagavaddharma in the 7th century enjoys a high degree of popularity in East Asian Mahayana Buddhism - especially in Chinese Buddhism - comparable to that of the six-syllable mantra Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ, which is also synonymous with Avalokiteśvara. It is often used for protection or purification. In Korea, copies of the dhāraṇī are hung inside homes to bring auspiciousness. In Japan, it is especially associated with Zen, being revered and recited in Zen schools such as Sōtō or Rinzai. - refer to wikipedia.: https://en.wikipedia.org/.../N%C4%ABlaka%E1%B9%87%E1%B9...

Over time, these deities became considered to be the various forms or incarnations of Avalokiteśvara, who was described in texts such as the Lotus Sutra as manifesting himself in different forms according to the needs of different individuals; the dhāraṇī thus came to be considered as addressed to Avalokiteśvara as Nīlakaṇṭha, now understood to be a manifestation of the bodhisattva. From Nīlakaṇṭha Avalokiteśvara, this particular dhāraṇī eventually became associated with another of Avalokiteśvara's forms, namely the thousand-armed (sahasra-bhuja) one, and became attached to Buddhist texts concerning the thousand-armed Avalokiteśvara.
Different versions of this dhāraṇī, of varying length, exist; the shorter version as transliterated into Chinese characters by Indian monk Bhagavaddharma in the 7th century enjoys a high degree of popularity in East Asian Mahayana Buddhism - especially in Chinese Buddhism - comparable to that of the six-syllable mantra Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ, which is also synonymous with Avalokiteśvara. It is often used for protection or purification. In Korea, copies of the dhāraṇī are hung inside homes to bring auspiciousness. In Japan, it is especially associated with Zen, being revered and recited in Zen schools such as Sōtō or Rinzai. - refer to wikipedia.: https://en.wikipedia.org/.../N%C4%ABlaka%E1%B9%87%E1%B9...

May 1 (M), 2023 Workers of the world - Unite! Observing - International Workers' Day
In France, all the employees are required to stay home (given leave).
Ironically, May Day is one of the most important holidays in communist countries such as China, Vietnam, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, and the former Soviet Union countries where workers tend to be the most deprived, if not oppressed... (Workers, you cannot unite! Or, you will lose nothing but your life...)
