Translation

The pond is full of colorful and brilliant wild flowers, exuding bursts of fragrance; strands of golden willow silk sway gently in the wind in the spring rain. A group of innocent, graceful and light-footed girls came from the village house located on the river bank. They danced and sang happily in twos and threes by the stream in the early spring rain. The gorgeous and colorful Luo Yi shines with splendid brilliance as the dancing posture changes; the cheeks lightly covered with makeup glow as delicate and rosy as clouds against the glow of the sun.
