Poem For Yingying
莺 莺 诗
殷 红 浅 碧 旧 衣 裳
取 次 梳 头 暗 澹 妆。
夜 合 带 烟 笼 晓 月
牡 丹 经 雨 泣 残 阳。
依 稀 似 笑 还 非 笑
仿 佛 闻 香 不 是 香。
频 动 横 波 娇 不 语
等 闲 教 见 小 儿 郎。
Ying Ying Shi
Yan hong qian bi jiu yi chang
Qu ci shu tou an dan zhuang.
Ye he dai yan long xiao yue
Mu dan jing yu qi can yang.
Yi xi si xiao huan fei xiao
Fang fu wen xiang bu shi xiang.
Pin dong heng bo jiao bu yu
Deng xian jiao jian xiao er lang.
Poem For Yingying
She wears the traditional dark red, bluish-green clothes and skirts
Simple hair-tie on her head, with under-stated make-up.
Appearance like a closed evening blossom, moistened by a daybreak moon
Sunshine remnants accent small raindrops on a tree peony.
It seems like she is smiling, but actually is not
At first, sense her fine fragrances, but then again not.
Her delicate nature pervades her whole countenance
By the time I see her, this official requires her to teach him leisure and restraint.
