Tian Kuang Zither of Tang Dynasty (唐代天貺琴)


Know more a little bit (知多一點點):

與此﹐是一張唐代仲尼古式的天貺琴。
此琴取名天貺﹐意為上天賜福人間﹐眾人能聞樂歡愉﹐忘卻一切煩惱。
目前﹐此琴由九嶷派楊氏后人所保留。
...
In here, you all will be seeing an Ancient Tang Dynasty Zither, named as Tian Kuang, meaning Heavenly Distributed Blessing to the All Beings.

Objective of this naming is that, hoping that All Beings after hearing the music that being played by this Zither will be filled with Joyous & Prosperity Blessing.

天貺琴上之讚詩 (Poem on the Zither):

溯自戊申,琴为余累。
枯桐半百,终鲜称意。
今歌得宝,实神所秘。
人力罔求,天庥载至。
锡厥嘉名,答彼苍赐
