In And Out Of Dream(Bilingual) Poem by Perdita Young (Hanna Wang)

After rain the sun begins to brightly shine,
light are the clouds, as wind wafts
the sweet scent of osmanthus;
rich are the hues of Autumn, livened by birds.

Back from a tour to the enchanting East Lake,
tired from zest, hard to stay awake,
thus I let down the screens and drop
to a rippling pond of dreams with shadows bright.

In dream there's no worry for daily routine:
moments of joy to see the scene,
blurred eyes from a series of dreams,
till the setting sun shed its last warm-heart'd beams.

Gazing afar on the net to the farthest,
as the flowers dance their gentlest,
colored butterflies flit and fly,
here and there in th' garden, to confuse the eye.

赏秋•梦里梦外

微雨过后秋阳灿，
风细云淡，
桂香袅袅，
叠翠流金鸟鸣喧。

览胜归来意阑珊，
始觉困倦，
垂下帘栊，
一泓幽梦照影浅。

梦里不虑凡尘事，
一晌贪欢，
睡意朦胧，
娇眼沉沉夕阳晚。

抬头凝眸极处看，
花影婆娑，
彩蝶舞乱，
忽东忽南戏丽苑。
