ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Follow the big river for thousands of years before reaching the southeast
Yin oh how many articles are enough to spread
She also lied in the imperial mausoleum and rested on Zhongshan
Let the wind and clouds gather and disperse by the side
Those passers-by wore cheongsams or Shanxi crowns
Holding the moonlight to drink the same Qinhuai
Those faces may be called “Eight Yan” or “Twelve Hairpins”
Or the crowds under the lights of Guangsha
Tonight and He Xi she counts the misty towers
When did the purple gas and gold powder fall?
Thousands of neon are worshipping Suzaku Bridge
Blooming with wild flowers
“Since ancient times in the emperor state of Jinling, Qinhuai lonely moon shines on Yiqiu.
Want to get the shadow of Yulou Yaodian, the Yangtze River flows freely beyond the threshold. ”
The emperor and business women hurriedly parked in the smoky water
Like swallows or egrets holding plum petals
She simply boarded the tower and wrote a folding fan
With whose pipa is only a cold river
Those passers-by come and go
The rise and fall are hovering in the sound of oars and lights
Those whose faces are unknown or romantic
Or a few blanks in the past of the Six Dynasties
Chunhua Qiuyue is not as good as her Zhu Yan has not changed
Heroes have also lived up to their dreams for thousands of years
Ancient temple c#ck crowed through the dust of this mansion
What kind of spirit is Qixia Mancheng
Tonight and He Xi she counts the misty towers
When did the purple gas and gold powder fall?
Thousands of neon are worshipping Suzaku Bridge
Just bloom with wild flowers
