解語花·上元英譯

風銷焰蠟，露浥烘爐，花市光相射。桂華流瓦。纖云散，耿耿素娥欲下。衣裳淡雅。看楚女、纖腰一把。簫鼓喧，人影參差，滿路飄香麝。
因念都城放夜。望千門如晝，嬉笑游冶。鈿車羅帕。相逢處，自有暗塵隨馬。年光是也。唯只見、舊情衰謝。清漏移，飛蓋歸來，從舞休歌罷。

Intelligent FlowerLantern FestivalZhou BangyanThe candle flames redden with the breeze;The lotus lanterns seem to freeze.The sky brightens the fair and the fair the sky.The titles are steeped in moonlightWhen fleecy clouds disperse in flight,The Moon Goddess would come down from on high.In elegant dress appearThe southern maidens tenderWith waist so slender.The drums boom far and near,The crowd's shadows rise and fall,Fragrance wafts over all.I remember the capital's lantern night:A thousand doors overwhelmed with light,People made merry in laughter.From golden cabs silk handkerchiefs *ped down,The gallants ran afterThe cabs as dim dust raised by steeds in the town.But years have passed,Now I see only for my partWith an unfeeling heartHow time flies fast.The cabs will not come back againAnd people have sung and danced in vain.
