The Moonlight

By Cheng Lie

I'm overlooking deep blue sky in silence
gentle and relaxing is the breeze,
a tottering house just a tentacle out of ground
covered luminescence with wire gauze of silver dust.

Slight clouds float, rainbow shadows rise
flowers on branches lifted up,
lean towards sweet kiss above the dome
stars stop in a hurry.

Wandering in the meaningful, the light
surrounds peaceful night.

月光

程烈

寂静中我远眺一片幽蓝
和风柔顺飘舒，
颤巍巍的房子是大地伸出的枝
披着银纱薄暮般皎洁的光。

微云浮沉，虹影上升
枝条上的花朵被举起来，
倾向穹顶之上甜蜜的吻
群星在匆忙中驻足停留。

徘徊在那深沉中的光
围绕夜色安宁。
