Listening to the silver chimes and rekindling the candles. The passing years are startling. Bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new. How much time can be spent? Can one still endure all-night drinking in old age? Fighting the cold to stay awake. Wine cup down, grateful to the plum blossoms for their company.
The neighbor's child wears new attire, with green jade and a gold hairpin. The spring wind attracts people's longing for beauty. Youth always fades, so indulge in the present joy. Freely ascend the snow-laden towers, and enjoy the sunlit gardens.
