I swam along the Nine Rivers with my daughter, and the water stirred in the wind;
Riding on a water chariot with a lotus cover, riding on two dragons and riding on Chi [chī];
Climbing Kunlun and looking around, my heart is soaring and mighty;
The sun is approaching dusk and I forget to return home, but I am still in my arms at the extreme end of the river;
The fish scale house is in the dragon hall, the purple shell is in the pearl palace;
The spirit can only be found in the water;
Riding on a white turtle [yuán] to chase salmon, and swimming with my daughter to the end of the river;
Flowing [sī] will come and go;
I'm going east to meet each other, and I'm sending my beauty to Nanpu;
The rolling waves come to greet you, and the scales of the fish come to greet you.
