英译:
Petal upon petal of finely cut silk, ice-white with a touch of delicate rouge. Your new fashion and overflowing charm make all the fragrant palace maids on high blush with shyness. But it is so easy for you to wither away, unable to withstand the cruel winds and rain. I am saddened as I ask the desolate courtyard, how many fading springs have passed by here? My heart is heavy with grief. Even a pair of swallows in flight could not ease my pain. They could not possibly comprehend what I say, as my ancient palace lies far away beneath the boundless sky.
