清平樂 ·五月十五夜玩月（二）宋 劉克莊

 

風高浪快，萬裏騎蟾背。

曾識姮娥真體態。素麵元無粉黛。

身遊銀闕珠宮。俯看積氣蒙蒙。

醉裏偶搖桂樹，人間喚作涼風。

 

Moonlit Night of the 15^th of the Fifth lunar Month  

(Verse Two) By Liu Ke-zhuang

 

Winds high, waves wide;

O’er myriad miles, on Jade Toad I ride,

Toward where true Chang’e doth bide,

Clear, her unrouged visage, once more espied. 

I roam the silvery halls, pearl-strewn ground,

And gaze below, in vapours drowned.

Drunk, I chance to shake the cassia;

O soothing zephyr, by mortals thus crowned.
