英譯: |
A matchless beauty sings a matchless song ,
Her teeth are white and bright , and she stands long .
The hall is taken in sullen atmosphere ,
The music soaring high to the blue sphere .
The pale moon shines the riverside city ,
And she is floating in the night of serenity .
The dotard mourns for his declining years ;
The brave's face is washed in bitter tears .
The jade cup is untouched for a long time ,
I am lost to the precious pipes ' chime .
Don't think that the audience are very tired ,
All , fool and wise alike , their hearts have died .
Did e'er the ancient person outstanding
Wait for but one friend with good understanding ?
I heard that there was a songster Qin Qing ,
Who had made the world give ear to listen .
