another tea baby 又個茶嬰



This is a tea dance with music and words.(don't laugh too hard at me)
It has four parts: born, young, old, death and reborn.
We are just like teas. Teas are like us.
This dance is a story of tea, people, and life.

Another Tea Baby

Born from the water, with five senses ready for the world;
the world is big and chasing tea is bigger.
Dancing in the fire, Tea is fun;
playing Tea is wild.
Walking together on air, yes together;
Tea has become an old friend.
Returning to the earth once again, so soon;
yet Tea will be there for the next generations to come.

又個茶嬰
從水裡來,長成五官迎向世界;
世界之大,要追求的茶世界更大。
活蹦亂跳,茶事極為美妙;
泡茶的世界狂野不拘。
逍遙漂浮……,確實與茶為伍;
與茶變成老友。
回到大地,不多時又回到大地;
世代交替,茶仍活躍在這塊土地上。
