Silkworms in spring will weave until they die, and candles will drain the wick every night.
Original text:
It was a long time ago that I met her, but since we separated, the time has become longer, the east wind is blowing, and a hundred flowers are blooming. Silkworms in spring will weave until they die, and candles will drain the wick every night. In the morning, she saw her hair cloud changing in the mirror, but she bravely faced the cold of the moonlight with her evening song. There are not many roads to Pengshan. Oh, Bluebird, listen! -Give me what she said! .
Translation:
It's rare to have a chance to meet each other, but I can't bear to part with each other. In addition, the weather in late spring, the east wind is coming, which makes people even more sad. ? Spring silkworms don't spin silk when they die, candles burn to ashes, and tear-like wax oil can drip dry. A woman who dresses up in front of the mirror in the morning is only worried that she is as rich as a cloud, her black hair changes color and her youthful appearance disappears. Men can't sleep at night, so they must feel Leng Yue's aggression. The other person's residence is not far from here, but there is no way to pass, but it is beyond our power. I hope there will be a messenger like a bluebird to visit my lover and diligently deliver the message for me.
