Original text:
The setting sun melts gold, the dusk clouds merge, and where are the people. The willows are dyed with thick smoke, and the plum flute is played with resentment, and I know how much spring is coming. During the Lantern Festival, the weather is harmonious and there is no wind or rain. Come to greet him, bring him a car and a BMW, and thank him for drinking, friends, and poets. It's a prosperous day in Zhongzhou, and there is a lot of free time in the boudoir. Remember to focus on the three or five. Paved with emerald green crowns, twisted with golden snow willows, and clustered with ribbons to support Chu. Now I am haggard, my hair is covered with frost, and I am afraid of going out at night. It's better to go under the curtain and listen to people's laughter.
Translation:
The setting sun is golden, like molten gold water, and the dusk clouds are wavy blue, as bright and crystal clear as jasper. The scenery is so beautiful, but where am I now? The new willow leaves are stained like green smoke, and there is a sound of resentment in the flute music of "Plum Blossoms Fall". The breath of spring is already showing. But in the mild weather during the Lantern Festival, how can we know that there will be no wind or rain.
Those drinking friends came to greet them in their gorgeous carriages and horses, but I could only respond politely, because I was depressed and anxious. I still remember the prosperous years of Bianjing. I had a lot of leisure time in my boudoir, and I especially value this fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Their hats were inlaid with jade beads, and their bodies were adorned with gold-twisted snow willows. All of them were dressed handsomely. Now I look haggard, my hair is fluffy and I have no intention of combing it, and I am even more afraid of going out at night. It's better to listen to other people's laughter from under the curtain.
