I COME BEARING EXCELLENT SCANS FOR FANS OF A CERTAIN ASIAN SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION.
And seriously, how cute is that title.
Anyway, I can't say anymore without breaking down into incoherent screaming so without further ado, I present raw scans for Track 10, featuring China, Macau, and Hong Kong!
Maybe Himaruya-sensei used a different version, but the version I know has a few differences from the ones he recited. In the last line, instead of "Wind of the Fall" I got the version that says "Wind of the West". I don't know if there is a Japanese version or something? The title is also a bit different. Himaruya-sensei also picked a poem that was written during the Ming, which is not the most well-known period for excellent Chinese poetry(I don't mean good poetry did not exist during that time because it certainly did). He didn't pick from a superbly well-known poet and the most well-known poem written by this poet is NOT this poem as well. Hmm...This is all very interesting.

Thank you for posting this raw scan.

I was expecting that he would pick poetry from the Song or Tang dynasty.
