1. "The Sound of Selling Flowers·Reminiscing about the Past" Yuan Dynasty: Zhang Kejiu

The Afang Dance Hall turns its sleeves, the famous garden of Jingu has a jade tower, and the Sui Dynasty embankment has ancient willow cable dragon boats. It’s hard to look back, the east wind is coming again, and the wild flowers are blooming in late spring.

The beauty committed suicide on the bank of Wujiang River, the war burned Chibi Mountain, and the general was empty at Yumen Pass. It is sad that the Qin and Han Dynasties were devastated, and the scholars let out a long sigh.

Translation: In the Epang Palace, the sleeves are flying, singing and dancing are in full swing; in the Jingu Garden, the jade towers are rising, adding new scenery; the ancient willows on the Sui embankment are lush, and the dragon boats in the river are showing their majesty. It’s hard to look back on the past, the east wind is blowing again, and late spring is a desolate time.

The beauty Yu Ji committed suicide on the bank of Wujiang River, the war burned thousands of warships in Chibi, and General Ban Chao died in vain at Yumen Pass. It is sad that the wars between Qin and Han dynasties destroyed millions of people, and scholars can only sigh.

2. "Han Palace Song"

Tang Dynasty: Xu Ning

Jade frost flows in front of the water curtain, and the flying swallows of Zhao family serve Zhaoyang.

The sound of the flute after dancing in the palm of my hand is endless, and the autumn night in the thirty-sixth palace is long.

Translation: The moonlight shines brightly in the crystal bead curtain, swaying the figure of the beautiful woman. Zhao Jiafeiyan serves the king in Zhaoyang Palace. After the joyful singing and dancing, the sound of the flute stopped, the thirty-sixth palace became cold, and the maids felt the long autumn night.

3. "Ancient Journey"

Tang Dynasty: Li He

Bai Jing returns to the Western Mountain, and the green flowers are far away.

Where is the end of the present and the past? Thousand years of life are blown by the wind.

The sand on the sea turns into stone, and the fish foam blows on the Qin Bridge.

The empty light wanders far away, and the copper pillar disappears from time to time.

Translation: The sun sets in the west mountain every day, and the moon rises high in the sky every night. There is no end to the past and present. Thousands of years of time are drifting away in the wind. Grains of sand in the sea slowly turned into rocks. Today, only fish can be seen playing in Qinqiao. Time passes like water, and the bronze pillar of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is no longer in the world.

4. "Baigou"

Yuan Dynasty: Liu Yin

The mountain where the treasure talisman is hidden can be attacked by itself. Who among the descendants will be the best among the others?

The quiet swallow does not shine on the moon in the sky, and the abundant sky sings to the wind in the sea.

Zhao Puyuan has no ambitions in the four directions, but Chanyuan can only laugh at a hundred years of achievements.

The Baigou moved to the Jianghuai River to stop the crime and declare peace.

Translation: The treasure talisman is hidden in the mountain, but who among the descendants is the outstanding hero? In the Song Dynasty, the bright moon could not shine on Youyan. Without Liu Bang's achievements, why would he sing "The Song of the Wind" in vain? Zhao Pu opposed Song Taizu to regain Youyan and had no ambitions in the four directions. It was ridiculous that the "Chanyuan Alliance" seeking peace had achieved a hundred years of success. The Liao and Jin invaded the Central Plains and the Jianghuai River became the national boundary of the Song and Jin Dynasties. It may not be fair to blame Huizong of the Song Dynasty for the country's demise.

5. "Sheep on the Hillside·Nostalgia on Lishan Mountain"

Yuan Dynasty: Zhang Yanghao

Looking around Lishan Mountain, I saw a torch in Afang. Where is the luxury back then?

Only the grass is sparse and the water is wet. I still hate the Smokey Tree.

The countries of Zhou, Qi, Qin, Han, and Chu all turned into earth when they won; when they lost, they all became earth.

Translation: Standing on Lishan Mountain and looking around, the majestic and magnificent Afang Palace has been burned to the ground. Where have the luxurious scenes of the past gone now? All that appears in front of you are sparse vegetation and meandering water.

By now those regrets have disappeared into the smoky woods. Think about how many emperors of Zhou, Qi, Qin, Han, Chu and other countries fought and killed for the sake of the world. How did they win? How was the loss? Aren’t they all turned into dirt!
