How is the night?
The night is still young.
The light of the courtyard.
The gentleman stops,
The sound of the Luan will sound like a general.
How is the night?
The night is still dark.
The courtyard is bright.
The gentleman stops,
The luan makes a chirping sound.
How is the night?
Night and morning in the countryside.
The courtyard is shining brightly.
The gentleman stops,
Watch the flag.
