Seven-Character Quatrain · Enchanting (On Radiant Beauty)

沐 风

By Mu Feng

    霓裳容好舞空明，

In rainbow garb, her comely form dances through the void so clear,

    宛在渚莲烟浪生。

As if she walks on lotus isles where misty waves appear.

    花烛含羞娇玉步，

A bridal candle veils her shyness, jade steps softly fall,

    芙蓉亦有表倾城。

Even the lotus bloom must yield, for she outshines them all.

作于2026年4月5日，海上怡趣堂。

Written on April 5, 2026, at Shanghai Yiyi Tang.

注：平水韵【八庚】平起首押

Note: Composed in Ping Shui Yun rhyme scheme [Eight Geng], first character flat tone with first rhyme.
