Zhegutian Theme: Color Sleeves Urge More Drinks

(prepared by: alexcwlin; edited by: Adam Lam)

 

Hands in color sleeves eagerly urge more drinking.

In old days, you let yourself go to get drunk with me.

We danced till moon at mid-tower willow dropped.

Singing stopped when wind wafted by fan subsided.

Since we parted, I always remember our times together.

Several times I dreamed I was with you.

Tonight, I look carefully at you in silver light,

and I am afraid it could just be another dream.
