The Eighth Day Of The Twelfth Lunar Month Poem by Luo Zhihai

臘八節

回風今送臘
梅萼報知春
八寶熬成粥
豐嘉食暖身
開心猶密意
滿目是親人
端慰叨光厚
難辭但率真


The Eighth Day Of The Twelfth Lunar Month

Returning wind now sent to the twelfth lunar month
Plum calyxes reported to spring to know
Eight treasures were cooked congee
Sumptuous cuisines were eaten to warm our bodies

Decent to comfort talk about light thickness
Hard to decline but we were forthright and sincere
Happy to be intimate still
Eyeful all my relatives
