1. "Don't wash the red" by Li He [Tang Dynasty]
Don't wash the red, the red will be lighter.
My dear young man, we met in Yinqiao yesterday.
If the feudal lord returns early, don’t draw an arrow from the string.
Translation: Don’t wash red clothes. If you wash them again and again, the red color will become lighter. My dear, I got on my horse, let go of the bridle and galloped to take advantage of my youth; I sent you off to the battle yesterday, and I said goodbye to you by the bridge. Come back early on the day of the title of Marquis, don't be an arrow on the string!
2. "Nanxiangzi·Photography for the Dead Wife" Nalan Xingde [Qing Dynasty]
Crying but silently, I only regretted my past kindness. Relying on the heavy reflection of the painting, it is full of sadness and cannot be painted.
The other words are so clear, I wake up early from a dream at midnight. I woke up early in the morning and dreamed of it, and I cried all the rain in the night.
Translation: Tears flowed down but I cried silently, just regretting that I didn’t value your deep love in the past. I want to reunite with you through painting, but my eyes are blurred with tears, my heart is broken and my heart is broken, and I cannot paint your appearance. The parting words were still clearly in my ears, and the sweet dream of flying together was woken up for no reason in the middle of the night. You have woken up early but I am still in my dream, crying all the time and hearing the sound of rain, wind and bells until dawn.
3. "Feng Title Cup·A beautiful Yao Qing can dye Han" Liu Yong [Song Dynasty]
A beautiful Yao Qing can dye Han. Sent thousands of miles away, short poems and long slips. I think of the first folds of moss paper, swirling green pipes and red windows. Gradually jade chopsticks and silver hooks filled up.
The tips are collected and the rhinoceros scroll is rolled up. Cherish it often and play it in a small room. More treasures are like pearls. Keep them in your sleeves and look at them all the time. Seems to be seen frequently, with thousands of charming faces.
Translation: The beautiful Yaoqing is a talented woman who can write poems and essays. She sent a short poem and a long letter from thousands of miles away. After reading this letter and the poem, I couldn't help but see the way she looked when she just folded the paper and prepared to write. She was waving a green pipe by the red xuan window, and she had finished writing in a short time. Whether it was small seal script or cursive script, she wrote it just right, with strong or graceful writing style.
I put them away in a brocade bag and rolled them up with a rhinoceros scroll. I cherished them very much and often played with them in my study. She even regarded her letters as precious as pearls and jade. She often kept them in her arms or sleeves and looked at them from time to time. Every time she saw a letter, it was like seeing her charming face.
