Royal Banquet at the Princess’ Villa
Li Qiao
The villa stands on outskirts green,
The chariots come with king and queen.
We attend them in a line long,
On flute is sung the phoenix song.
To Southern Mountain trees stretch near,
On Northern Stream clouds mirrored clear.
By royal favor we’re all drunk;
In high delight our lord’s still sunk.
