花开半朵,
就喝半朵的酒。
When a flower is half open,drink half a flower’s worth of wine.
弦月画眉,
浅浅落入夜光杯,
半杯凉,半杯光。
The crescent moon draws its browand settles lightly into a jade cup:half the cup cool, half the cup light.
不必斟满——
多一分,
月色就要溢出来了。
No need to fill it —one drop moreand the moonlight would spill over.
“人生何必满杯,留三分月色,泼七分敬自由。”
“Why fill life’s cup to the brim? Keep three parts moonlight, and pour out seven as a toast to freedom.”
