My friend from far away, you who've endured an arduous road
Please come drink a cup of dismount wine
Wash away your journey’s windblown troubles
Come and see the beautiful grassland
My friend from far away, my most cherished, honored guest
I offer to you this pure white khata
I offer a piece of the prairie’s loving soul
Please come drink a cup of dismount wine
My friend from far away, you who've endured an arduous road

t/n:
下马酒 (dismount wine) is a Mongolian tradition of welcoming guests with a toast. Usually wine is served in silver cups, and before drinking, used to honor first heaven, then earth, then one's ancestors.
哈达, ཁ་བཏགས།, хадаг, or དར། (romanized as khata, khada, khadag, or hada) is a Mongolian and Tibetan ceremonial silk fabric used to express respect, congratulations, blessings, etc. The Tibetan word means "mouth" and "horse", as in the gift of this sash is equal in value to that of a horse. They are usually solid white, blue, or yellow, but there are also 5-color khata in blue/white/yellow/green/red, with blue representing the sky, white for clouds, green for rivers, red for dharmapala, and yellow for earth. The 5-color khata is considered the garment of bodhisattvas, and is only used in specific situations.
The color white in this cultural context is associated with horses, clouds, sheep/goats, milk, cranes, and mountain snow. It symbolizes purity, beauty, good fortune, and kindness.
Ok so “The Daily Life of Being the Campus Idol’s Fake Boyfriend” was the novel I needed to read to have a break from all the angsty stuff LOL. Drew the main two based on the audio drama art.
It’s basically a romcom about two dudes who have a crush on each other, but try coming off as straight in order to get closer to one another. This series was such a hilarious ride with a protagonist who is extremely PAINFULLY oblivious and keeps making the wildest assumptions that his roomie is straight.
