　　英文翻譯

　　The husband's to their old age,

　　In her headdress, and the cross-pins, with their six jewels;

　　Easy and elegant in her movements;

　　[Stately] as a mountain, [majestic]as a river,

　　Well beseeming her pictured robes: –

　　[But] with your want of virtue, O lady,

　　What have you to do with these things?

　　How rich and splendid

　　Is her pleasant-figured robe!

　　Her black hair in masses like clouds,

　　No false locks does she descend to.

　　There are her ear-plugs of jade,

　　Her comb-pin of ivory,

　　And her high forehead, so white.

　　She appears like a visitant from heaven!

　　She appears like a goddess!

　　How rich and splendid

　　Is her robe of state!

　　It is worn over the finest muslin of dolichos,

　　The more cumbrous and warm garment being removed.

　　Clear are her eyes; fine is her forehead;

　　Full are her temples.

　　Ah ! such a woman as this!

　　The beauty of the country!
