Long and Delicate Eyebrows: (Good Reasons for Young and Lovely Ladies)

 

  眼 细 眉 长: 好 女 儿 令
眼 细 眉 长。
宫 样 梳 妆。
靸 鞋 儿 走 向 花 下 立 着。
一 身 绣 出, 两 同 心 字。
浅 浅 金 黄。
早 是 肌 肤 轻 渺
抱 着 了,暖 仍 香。
姿 姿 媚 媚 端 正 好
怎 教 人 别 后
从 头 仔 细
断 得 思 量。
Yan Xi Mei Chang: (Hao Nu Er Ling)

Yan xi mei chang.
Gong yang shu zhuang.
Sa xie er zou xiang hua xia li zhao.
Yi shen xiu chu, liang tong xin zi.

Qian qian jin huang.
Zao shi ji fu qing miao
Bao zhao liao, nuan reng xiang.
Zi zi mei mei duan zheng hao

Zen jiao ren bie hou
Cong tou zi xi
Duan de si liang.

 

Long and Delicate Eyebrows: (Good Reasons for Young and Lovely Ladies)

Long and delicate eyebrows
Hairdo and make-up with palace current fashions.
Feet half-in her slippers.
Walk outside, she waits for him below the blossoms.

Put on her going-out embroidered clothes with two hearts intertwined
Very light golds and yellows.
He will be able to see through her garments to examine her skin
Finally able to touch and embrace her warmth and fragrance.

Her appearance and posture, just right, very charming and attractive
While away he remembered his empress
From the beginning he missed and thought of her every detail
He never stopped longing for her.
