On Fantasy Waterfall Screen
Water is the source of life, third of
The five elements of the universe. ①
The waterfall screen hangs lightly,
Looking graceful, hazy and obscure.
The scenes change and overlap
On the enchanting fantasy screen.
Heaven trails red burning clouds;
Stars move in clusters across sky.
Burning lava erupts from the crater;
Volcano illumines the sky in flamingo.
Over quiet sea the beautiful sun rises;
In vast deserts camel bells traverse.
In rainforests frogs and birds sing;
In cities the morning bells clang.
The earth’s Creation is so mysterious,
With all in mutual respect and harmony.
Great virtue is imminent in the world;
The disabled and the healthy wish to mix.
Who sent the dark night away?
His invention lights up Philadelphia.
Who wrote If I Am Given the Use of Eye?
Feelings expressed move sky and earth.
Shanghai always values original invention;
For a hundred years, the roc has flown.
Hand on chest is unable to keep down
The thoughts that are raging in my heart.
Note: ①The five elements of the universe refer to metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
