The first song has a lot of dialogue/speak. It's about Taoism theory, that's why I share this song for you. But you don't understand Chinese..........

I can share some Han Chinese songs that maybe change your mind that "Chinese a very attractive language to listen to"

Never mind, two Han Chinese Pipa (Chinese lute) music for you, I'm sure you'll like it.

The first one: Pleasure




The second one: Language of Pipa (Chinese lute)




Btw, the Taoism, the "Tao" should pronounce "Dao" not "T" is "D", I don't know why English translate it wrong pronunciation, Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese also pronounce "D" sound.

Chinese characters are hieroglyphs, Dao=道, 道= 辶(road) + 首(head). Road also means the right way of your life, and the way forward. Head also means people's mind/idea and choice.

Therefore, Dao=道(regular meaning is road) also means: At the crossroads, someone=道 pull a stray person's hand(old "道" has a "hand" word in "道") and lead the right way, also means the road that people walked and experienced-It's 道 Dao(is an ideology/the right way that you must find out and comprehend it by yourself).

Main idea about Taoism(Daoism) is "inaction can rule the country/can get nature balance, people should comply with the laws of nature, and people should cleanse their heart and limit their desires"

Taoism(Daoism) also combine Yin & Yang theory. As your know, Yin(like night, moon, cold, winter, foot, woman....) and Yang(like day, sun, hot, summer, head, man.... ) are theory of relativity. like Tai Ji Diagram(Yin & Yang symbol or diagram of the universe) South Korean national flag is a skew Tai Ji Diagram, so traditional Korean music like a skew Han Chinese music.

I think you need to use 道 replace English word(just pronunciation no hieroglyphs meaning) and 禅(Zen, Buddhism ideology) as your signature, it'll let you seem more professional. Japanese also use these two characters and Korean also can understand these two Chinese characters.
