On Fantasy Waterfall Screen

Water is the source of life, third of

The five elements of the universe.

The waterfall screen hangs lightly,

Looking graceful, hazy and obscure.

The scenes change and overlap

On the enchanting fantasy screen.

Heaven trails red burning clouds;

Stars move in clusters across sky.

Burning lava erupts from the crater;

Volcano illumines the sky in flamingo.

Over quiet sea the beautiful sun rises;

In vast deserts camel bells traverse.

In rainforests frogs and birds sing;

In cities the morning bells clang.

The earth’s Creation is so mysterious,

With all in mutual respect and harmony.

Great virtue is imminent in the world;

The disabled and the healthy wish to mix.

Who sent the dark night away?

His invention lights up Philadelphia.

Who wrote If I Am Given the Use of Eye?

Feelings expressed move sky and earth.

Shanghai always values original invention;

For a hundred years, the roc has flown.

Hand on chest is unable to keep down

The thoughts that are raging in my heart.

Note: ①The five elements of the universe refer to metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
