Chinese to English: Lu Xiao Feng Excerpt General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Chinese 西園在城西 是個大花園。現在已過了黃昏 花叢裡樹陰下亭台樓閣間 已亮起了 一
盞盞繁星般的燈光。晚風中帶著花香 也帶著酒香。月圓如鏡 正掛在樹梢。是連理樹。高
大的紅木棉 兩株連理 合成一株 就像是情人們在擁抱著一樣。
Translation - English
The West Garden was a large public garden located in the western part of the city. It was past twilight; lanterns resembling the stars had been lit around the flowers and shrubs, under the shade of the trees, and between the pavilions. The night breeze carried the fragrance of flowers as well as the fragrance of wine. The moon was round like a mirror as it hung between two trees with entwined branches. Two tall red kapok trees had intertwined to become one, like two lovers locked in an embrace. – excerpt from The Legend of Lu Xiao Feng: The Embroidery Bandit (陸小鳳傳奇之繡花大盜)
