Untitled - 無題



Trying to create a poem forcefully as I was bored…

1 又見門前柳枝發 Once more by the front door willow twigs sprouting in green,
2 三秋已別與君隔 Three autumns had passed since my Lord had departed.
3 舊巢重逢歸燕喜 Joyful are the returning swallows upon seeing their old nest,
4 牆上琵琶絃音客 On the wall still hangs the pipa but its sound is like a long gone departed guest.

3 Swallows are known to return to their old nests and will repair them if necessary. This can go on for generations.

4 The pipa represents the woman while the sounds represents like her clientele, comes and goes as their mood dictates.
