Mèng Zé, Li shang yin 夢澤 李商隱

Mèng Zé sorrowful wind shakes the white reeds
Chǔ King buries beauties all around the city
not aware whether for singing and dancing
reduce many palace cooks for the thin waist

Comment:
The kind likes the beauties too much. It is unwise to encourage all beauties for the thin waist. For the goodness of the King or the citizen, farming should be their basic duty.

夢澤悲風動白茅
楚王葬盡滿城嬌
未知歌舞能多少
虛減宮廚爲細腰
