Song of beauties

Song of beauties.


On the day of the spring festival of the third moon
the heavenly blue was renewed.
How many noble beauties of the capital Chang'an
gathered by the lake water!

Posture is noble and thoughts are pure,
modest appearance and gentle disposition.

The perfection of addition and the article of his
These virgins are proud not for nothing!

In the dusk glow of late spring
their patterned
shine silk.

One of them has a tsilin embroidered with silver,
a multi-colored peacock - in another.

Well, what are they decorated with
their heads?

Decorated with feathers of unseen birds
falls
fringed on the forehead.

Well, if your back
will they turn?

We will see pearl pendants cascade,
embracing
tenderly their camp.

Among them there are even sisters of that beauty,
that he lives in the palace chambers, -
It's not for nothing that the title of great princesses
they were given by the emperor himself!
