The Candle-blossoming Night

In the candle-blossom night,
two meet in the deep hidden chamber.
Too young to know their passions’ depth,
only their hearts are as bright as sun and moon—
that love comes not only once or twice,
they do not know yet.

In the candle-blossom night,
two meet under the darkening window.
Not knowing what lies ahead of them,
only their minds are as sturdy as pine and bamboo—
that life brings many tears,
they do not know yet.
