Blue-and-white Porcelain

by Jay Chou

On the unglazed porcelain,

indigo shading into green.

A peony newly portrayed,

as you're in fresh makeup.

Slow-rising incense floats the screen through,

taking along my thoughts afar to you.

The roaming brush leans on my thinking,

leaving behind a half-done painting.

In the enameled painting of maid figures,

feminity is hidden to the purpose.

Your smile, fleeting but sweet,

is a bud, bursting yet contained.

Your charm wafts away,

hard to forget.

Could I trace it back?

No trace left.

White-bellied, blue-scaled carps

are to leap out of the bowl bottoms.

Copying the Song typeface,

I inscribe my name but thinking about yours.

Your secret deep inside the kiln,

veiled for centuries, still unknown,

It's like a needle so delicate,

dropping on the ground through quietude.

The outdoor plantain trees allured a sudden rain;

The copper knocker invited some greenish stain;

Never thought I'd brush past you in such a pretty scene.

Amid splash-ink paintings of Jiangnan hills and water,

your receding figure blended well into the picture

The clearing-up grayish blue is waiting for the rain.

Another chance meeting with you, I'm expecting in vain.

I cup in hand the moonlight, white and bright.

A ripple mirrors your face, the face in my heart!

Like the time-honored porcelain standing lofty,

you're combing your beauty.

With a tinge of smile in your eyes,

you look so dainty!
