Chinese ( AD 835 ):
多情卻似總無情,
唯覺樽前笑不成。
蠟燭有心還惜別,
替人垂淚到天明。
English Translation﹕
We were together in a meal and supposed to have a closed feeling but appeared calm like we have a shallow relationship, we can barely laugh loudly in the feast as in the way it is supposed be, the candle with the wick and say goodbye, it keeps tearing for us till tomorrow morning.
The golden banquet is facing parting. The poet and the woman want to pretend to kiss happily, but they can only stare at each other with hidden sadness. The wax drops from the candles are like tears, separating a pair of lovers at the two ends of the world.
