1.IntroductionLi Bai (701 -762 February 8 December 2009), a great Romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty, was later known as “Poetic Genius” (张初勋, 2010: 5). He is famous as his fantastic works and accidental behaviors. His famous poems are “Thoughts on a Quiet Evening” ,”Clear and Fair Melody” ,”The Road Is Hard” and so on.William Blake (28 November 1757 – 12 August 1827) is an influential English poet, painter and printmaker. Largely unrecognized during his lifetime, Blake is now considered as a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age (王永梅, 2010: 114). His main poetry collections are "Songs of Innocence", "Songs of Experience" and so on.Although they are in the different ages and have different social background and education, I find they have a lot common in their romantic poems.For example, William Blake is a very influential romantic poet in the English literature. Under the stimulus of the French Revolution, he wrote a series of long poets, he also wrote about triumph of American Independence .In those poems, he was in sympathy with the political radicals in their revolt against priests and the king, against the slavery and the oppression and exploitation of the poor. Similarly, Li Bai wrote many poems to not only expose and criticize the ruling group of their dissolution and corruption, but also to show him deeply sympathy to the poor who were exploited by the greedy officials, at the same time, to against the tradition-bound, He was not afraid of relatives of the emperor. I would like to take it for example—“How can I lower my brow and bend my waist to serve the aristocrats, causing myself unhappiness?” (Curtis D.Smith, 2010: 225).“安能摧眉折腰事权贵，使我不得开心颜？”Besides, they all wrote poems to reflect their pursuit of the ideal of freedom and positive spirit, but they wrote in their own way. Please follow me and let us figure it out together.2.Similarities of Li Bai and William Blake’s Romantic Poems2.1 Poems written to eulogize the joy in our lifeWe can clearly feel the joy in both Li Bai’s poems and William Blake’s poems. Let us read Leaving My Children in Nanling to Leave for the Capital (南临别儿童入京) wrote by Li Bai and Infant Joy wrote by William Blake, then you can easily get it.If you read infant joy of William Blake, which sentence impressed you most ? From my point of view,”I happy am, joy is my name, sweet joy befall thee!”It evokes a child’s innocence and not merely at birth, but at conception itself. The followed “Sweet joy I call thee, thou dost smile, I sing the while, sweet joy befall thee ” also gives us a peaceful and beautiful picture in which a mother is singing to her baby to make him go to sleep, which makes us feel the world is such an naive and wonderful paradise. We can see the joy and happiness in the lines and the words.As for Li bai’s poem Leaving My Children in Nanling to Leave for the Capital （南临别儿童入京）, the author expresses his emotion more directly. Such as—”I call the boys to cook the chickens and prepare the white wine. Sons and daughters of mine laugh and smile, pulling at my clothes, singing loudly to bring on inebriation, wishing to comfort myself. I rise to dance as the sun goes down, struggling to give off light.” (周宪，2010: 110~111).“呼童烹鸡酌白酒，儿女嬉笑牵人衣。
