What book of poetry is Sansao's I like you from?

San Mao's I like you comes from the poetry book Zen Enlightenment of Love.

The original text is as follows:

You tell me to go east, I give you grass like a lamb.

You tell me to go west, I reflect your colorful sunset.

You tell me to go north, I am your lily in the winter wind.

You tell me to go south, I am your bride in the air.

East and west, north and south, you are my tender lover.

Star of the stars in my thoughts, I love you.

You are the bounty of my fruitfulness, the thoughts that flow in my blood.

You are the warmth of holding hands in my dreams.

Sanmao and Jose's love story:

Sanmao once wrote in the article "bearded man and I": before we got married, the bearded man asked me a very strange words: "How much money do you want a husband"? I said, "If I don't like what I see, I won't marry a millionaire; if I like what I see, I'll marry a billionaire." "When all is said and done, you always want to marry rich", "There are exceptions" I sighed.

"What if it's with me"? He asked naturally. "Then forget about money as long as you have enough to eat". He thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you eat much"? I answered very carefully, "Not much, not much, and I can eat less later."

With these few lines of conversation, I became the wife of the bearded Jose.

The union of Sanmao and José was the result of each other's desire to travel in company with the other. Sanmao was an independent woman, and, as she said herself, "neither side demanded too much from or occupied each other."
