Jade-Like Skin, Flowered Face, Willow Tree Waist and Limbs: (A Lover Returns)
玉 肌 花 脸 柳 腰 肢: (阮 郎 归)
玉 肌 花 脸 柳 腰 肢。
红 妆 浅 黛 眉。
翠 鬟 斜 亸 语 声 低。
娇 羞 云 雨 时。
伊 怜 我，我 怜 伊
心 儿 与 眼 儿。
绣 屏 深 外 说 深 期。
幽 情 谁 得 知。
Yu Ji Hua Liang Liu Yao Zhi: (Ruan Lang Gui)
Yu ji hua lian liu yao zhi.
Hong zhuang qian dai mei.
Cui huan xie duo yu sheng di.
Jiao xiu yun yu shi.
Yi lian wo, wo lian yi.
Xin er yu yan er.
Xiu ping shen wai shui shen qi.
You qing shei de zhi.
Jade-Like Skin, Flowered Face, Willow Tree Waist and Limbs: (A Lover Returns)
Jade-like skin, flowered face, willow tree waist and limbs.
Fading red make-up and black pigment eyebrows.
Emerald-green hairbun askew and hanging down, soft whispers.
Delicate and shy time for clouds and rain.
She loves him, he loves her
Heart-mind of a child given to a child.
Deep behind an embroidered screen, talking of a long-term relationship.
Cannot reveal to others their hidden feelings.
Notes:
Clouds and rain: Common Chinese metaphor for making love.
