班 婕 妤 ： 三 首
怪 来 妆 阁 闭
朝 下 不 相 迎。
总 向 春 园 里
花 间 笑 语 声。

Guai lai zhuang ge bi

Imperial Concubine: Three Poems: No. 3

Now I know why the lady’s make-up chamber is closed
Court inferiors have no need of formally meeting others.
Emperor and his lady inside the spring garden
Among flowers, the sounds of laughter and words.
