Red Scarf Falling
Red scarf pulling down
From the virtuous moon,
Yellow beams of sun
Smile in approval.
Tonight kisses shall
Be our first together;
Tomorrow we shall
Have our first dawn.
Side note: In Chinese ancient wedding, the bride have a red scarf covering her face on wedding day, until the ceremony is done, and the couple is sent to their room, the scarf stay veiled. Then the gloom uncover it and share wine and have nice night.
