A sage lived here once And lives here still - Wise words and rectitude. Known as poet, too, He balanced infinitudes - Joining heaven and earth. Seven-five generations ago And now a muddy town - Tempe, gate and home. Worlds away The heart flies true - The right angle of virtue.

Qufu

Where Confucius
Lived an died -
Study, not worship.

In the quiet woods
A crane resides -
Cypress, pine and flower.

A sage lived here once
And lives here still -
Wise words and rectitude.

Known as poet, too,
He balanced infinitudes -
Joining heaven and earth.

Seven-five generations ago
And now a muddy town -
Tempe, gate and home.

Worlds away
The heart flies true -
The right angle of virtue.

GUESTEMINEMR...	Wow, what kind of lame bastard are you to say that of him. You're probably a lonely homo who sits at home doing nothing, but watch *** and eat chips all day.

GUESTRAISA_16	confucius is from Qufu city in Shandong China... Qufu city is his hometown, this is where you can find his temple (originally his house then change into a temple by Prince Lu after confucius death) his family mansion and the cemetery where confucius was burried.
