Zheng Banqiao Couplet For His Study: 鄭板橋 百尺高梧 撐得起一輪明月 數椽矮屋 鎖不住午夜書聲

Couplet Written by Zheng Banqiao for His Own Study
- by Zheng Banqiao (Qing dynasty)
- Translated by Frank C Yue


The hundred-feet-tall phoenix tree props up high the bright Moon round;
Several short houses can't lock in the midnight recital sound.


清 • 鄭板橋 書齋親提對聯

百尺高梧,撐得起一輪明月。
數椽矮屋,鎖不住午夜書聲。
