【倒着看】谁的月亮：一场看不见的战争，与尼尔·泰森「倒着看」的宇宙

(One deep bronze bell strike, very long decay)

(Distant river water flowing in darkness)

(Low Sheng drone enters, sparse Guqin notes)

[Verse 1]

(Deep male baritone, solemn recitation, four-character ancient ode style)

江雾沉沉... 没我石阶

水痕新高... 旧岁不再

潮鸣彻夜... 直抵城垓

堤上一人... 默然独在

[Interlude]

(Bianqing stone chime, single strikes, silence between)

[Verse 2]

(Same voice, measured, like reciting a classic)

气聚成形... 是有此身

气散归虚... 还诸苍旻

来何所自... 去何所嗔

聚散之际... 假我百春

[Chorus]

(Lead voice solemn, low male unison chant answers in parentheses)

为天地—— 立心... (天地本无言)

为生民—— 立命... (此身来承担)

[Instrumental]

(Bianzhong bells and Se zither enter, slow ceremonial pulse on Tanggu drum)

[Verse 3]

(Fu-style enumeration, gathering force but restrained)

水漫其田... 水没其垣

水吞其仓... 水啮其藩

浩浩汤汤... 史册无前

然潮头至此... 止于人前——

它漫得过城垣... 漫不过

一个抬头的人

[Chorus]

(Fuller, unison chant stronger, drum steady)

为往圣—— 继绝学... (薪火递千年)

为万世—— 开太平... (水退见桑田)

[Bridge]

(Flood recedes, drums and bells fall away, only Guqin and Xiao remain)

(Almost whispered, warm)

水退之后... 泥中草木

与我同起... 与我同沐

同此一雾... 同此聚散

民... 吾同胞

物... 吾与也

彼不曾呼吸者... 亦从此雾中... 来

[Final Chorus]

(Soft, lead voice alone first, unison joins gently at the end)

为天地—— 立心... (心在人身上)

为生民—— 立命... (灯递后来人)

[Outro]

(Voice fades)

雾散有时...

水平有时...

天地无言...

(Long pause)

此身... 承担。

(One final bronze bell strike, decaying into silence)
