Mount Taishan

Mt. Taishan, Shandong, China

Taesanga by Yang Sa-eon

Though Taesan is high
It is a hill beneath the sky
If they keep on trying to climb
Why shouldn’t men succeed in it
But they who don’t try to climb
Only complain of its height

(Taesanga is one of the most famous Korean old poem. Taesan is the Korean pronunciation of Taishan, and Taesanga means Taesan Song.)

양사언의 태산가를 영어로 옮길려하니 영 수상하다.
