現実逃避

Millennial, Y...

At the time when blossoms Fall from the cherry-tree: On a day when yellow birds Hovered in the branches - You said you must stop, Because your horse was tired: I said I must go, Because my silkworms were hungry.

All night I could not sleep Because of the moonlight on my bed. I kept on hearing a voice calling: Out of Nowhere, Nothing answered “yes”.

I will carry my coat and not put on my belt; With unpainted eyebrows I will stand at the front window. My tiresome petticoat keeps on flapping about; If it opens a little, I shall blame the spring wind.

I heard my love was going to Yang-chou And went with him as far as Ch’u-shan. For a moment when you held me fast in your outstretched arms I thought the river stood still and did not flow.

I have brought my pillow and am lying at the northern window, So come to me and play with me awhile. With so much quarrelling and so few kisses How long do you think our love can last?
