Written For a Lady to Give Her Man
闺 情 代 作
梧 桐 叶 落 雁 初 归
迢 递 无 因 寄 远 衣。
月 照 石 泉 金 点 冷
凤 酣 箫 管 玉 声 微。
佳 人 力 杵 秋 风 处
荡 子 从 征 梦 寐 希。
遥 望 戎 楼 天 欲 晓
满 城 鼕 鼓 白 云 飞。
Gui Qing Dai Zuo
Wu tong ye luo yan chu gui
Tiao di wu yin ji yuan yi.
Yue zhao shi quan jin dian leng
Feng han xiao guan yu sheng wei.
Jia ren li chu qiu feng chu
Dang zi cong zheng meng mei xi.
Yao wang rong lou tian yu xiao
Man cheng dong gu bai yun fei.
Written For a Lady to Give Her Man
Parasol and paulownia tree leaves fall down, wild geese the first to return
Faraway you need me to send your winter clothes.
Cool moon shines on springhead stones like drops of gold
Sad jade-like musical sounds, bamboo flute summons a phoenix.
In the autumn wind I pound to clean your clothes
They must make a long journey beyond my hopeful dreams to you.
Army far away in the distance, you in a dawn colored guard tower desire me
White clouds fly, winter drums again communicate caution in the cities.
