vi Hỡi chị Hằng Nga náu Quảng Hàn,Bốn mùa trăng gió mấy giang san.Áo tiên tuy nhuộm màu Vương Mẫu,Hương tục còn nồng lửa Hậu Lang.Mắt phượng nhớ say mùi ngọc thố,Cung Nghê sao thẹn khúc cầm loan.Nẻo không duyên nợ người cùng thế,Xin chớ dầm mình nước hợp hoan. O sister Heng'e on the Moon,How long it is you have been there.You've been wearing heavenly coats like the Queen Mother of the West Queen Mother,Yet you're still living, longing for times with Hou Yi.Your dainty eyes are reminiscent of the Moon rabbit Jade Rabbit's smell,The Moon Palace somehow echoes a love song.It was never meant to be anyway,So please stop pursuing this courtship.
