一凡 从鸟 二偏 令从 三末 人世 木来 ，， 哭都 向知 金爱 陵慕 事此 更生 衰才 。。
欲洁何曾洁？云空未必空。
可怜金玉质，终陷泥淖中。 Chastity is her wish, Seclusion her desire;
Alas, though fine as gold or jade,
A thousand li the east wind blows
But her home in her dream is far away.
堪破三春景不长，缁衣顿改昔年妆。
可怜绣户侯门女，独卧青灯古佛旁。
She sees through the transience of spring,
Dark Buddhist robes replace her garments fine; Pity this child of a wealthy noble house,
枉凝眉：一个是阆苑仙葩，一个是美玉无瑕。 若说没奇缘，今生偏又遇着他；若说有奇缘， 事终虚化﹖一个枉自嗟呀，一个空劳牵挂。一个是水中月，一个是镜中花 。想眼中能有多少泪珠儿， 怎经得秋流到冬尽，春流到夏！
VAIN LONGING One is an immortal flower of fairyland, The other fair flawless jade, And were it not predestined, Why should they meet again in this existence? Yet, if predestined, Why does their love come to nothing? One sighs to no purpose, The other yearns in vain; One is the moon reflected in the water, The other but a flower in the mirror. How many tears can well from her eyes? Can they flow on from autumn till winter, From spring till summer?

Twelve Beauties of Jinling
二十年来辨是非，榴花开处是宫闱。 三春争及初春景，虎兕相逢大梦归。 For twenty years she arbitrates. Where pomegranates blaze by palace gates, How can the late spring equal the spring’s start?
势败休云贵，家亡莫论亲。 偶因济村妇，巧得遇恩人 。
When riches will have flown will honours then avail? When ruin breaks your home, e’en relatives will fail! But sudden through the aid extended to Da me Liu, A friend in need fortune will make to rise for y ou.
才自精明志自高，生于末世运偏消。 清明涕送江边望，千里东风一梦遥。 So talented and highminded,
She is born too late for luck to come her way ;
Through tears she watches the stream, On the clear and bright day
The source of trouble, verily is centered most in ning
ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ
The bird appears when the world falls on evil times;
None but admire her talents and her skill;
First she complies ,then commands, then is dismissed, Departing in tears to jinling more wretched still.
展富 眼贵 吊又 斜何 晖为 湘襁 江褓 水之 逝间 楚父 云母 飞违
, , . .
情天情海幻情身，情既相逢必主淫。 漫言不肖皆荣出，造衅开端实在宁。 Love high as heaven ,love ocean-wide ,thy lovely form will don; What time love will encounter love ,license must rise wanton; Why hold that all impiety in Jung doth find its spring,
