Jewels don't suit you
The very idea cheapens your value
For the world of the rich sickens you.

Rather than any violet silk
The fading rosy cotton flows on your skin.
And deeps your ebony eyes.

You can't stand the cities
For the air is too heavy
And the sky's lost its color

The peony's too elegant
Makeup takes away your color
The windy countryside is your home

Linger in the misty mountains
Stay with your brothers and sisters
And bloom in the clearest of dreams

You who's beauty does not overbear
You who's never spoiled your surroundings
You, the Chinese Rose.
