Li Mei I’m ready for Carnival Carla Shall we go and join the parade now

The Lantern Festival
Xin Qiji (杨宪益戴迭 译)
In the east wind tonight a thousand trees burst into bloom
And stars are blown down like rain
The whole perfumed road is thronged
With fine carriages and horses bright with gems
Phoenix flutes make music
The moon light flashes
Fish and dragon lanterns whirl the whole night long
Golden willow and butterfly trinkets in her hair
Laughing and chatting she leaves a faint fragrance behind
A thousand times I search for her in the crowd
And suddenly turning my head
Discover her where the lantern lights are dim
