Spring night
Spring night is worth a thousand dollars, and the flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy.
Song Guan balcony sound fine, swinging yard night heavy.
Vernacular translation
Spring nights, even for a short time, are very precious. The flowers exude a faint fragrance, and the moonlight casts a dim shadow under the flowers. Deep in the balcony, rich people are still singing and dancing, and gentle songs and wind music are scattered in the intoxicating night from time to time. The night is already deep, and the yard with swings is quiet.
