Love Eterne


This took me half a day to complete.  It is easy when one has the idea...

1 銀河孤單岸無人
The Milky Way is lonely with no one on its banks,
2 金風寒刺碎花魂 And souls of flowers are shattered by the cold piercing autumn wind.
3 牛郎遠隔織女星 Far apart are the stars of Cowherd and Spinning Maid,
4 總比凡間更殷勤 More can be said of their love than those in the mundane world.

1 Implying that Seventh Night has not come yet.

2 Golden wind symbolizes the approaching autumn.

3 The stars of Altair and Vega. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qixi_Festival

4 How many relationships can last when the lovers can only meet once a year?
