Looking at the Moon / Looking at the Moon in Memory of the Ancient Times

Author: Zhang Jiuling Dynasty: Tang Dynasty

There is a bright moon on the sea, and the end of the world is **** this time.

Lover complains about the distant night, and thinks of each other in the evening.

The candle is extinguished, the light is full, the clothes are covered with dew.

It's not a good idea to give it away, but it's a good idea to go back to bed and dream about it.

Translation

The moon rises over the vast sea, and at this time you and I are looking at each other from the end of the world. The sentient beings all resent the long moonlight night and miss their loved ones by staying awake all night. Extinguish the candles and love this full moonlight, I wandered around in my clothes y cold night dew. I can't bring the beautiful moonlight to you, I just hope I can meet you in the dreamland.

Sea to come" and other famous lines, it seems bland, without a peculiar word, without a coloring of the color, out of the mouth, but naturally has a high Hua Hunhong meteorology.
