Why old pictures are always prettier?




葬花吟

花谢花飞花满天,红消香断有谁怜?

游丝软系飘春榭,落絮轻沾扑绣帘?

闺中女儿惜春暮,愁绪满怀无释处;

手把花锄出绣闺,忍踏落花来复去?

柳丝榆荚自芳菲,不管桃飘与李飞;

桃李明年能再发,明年闺中知有谁?

三月香巢已垒成,梁间燕子太无情!

明年花发虽可啄,

却不道人去梁空巢也倾。

一年三百六十日,风刀霜剑严相逼;

明媚鲜妍能几时,一朝飘泊难寻觅。

花开易见落难寻,阶前闷杀葬花人;

独倚花锄泪暗洒,洒上空枝见血痕。

杜鹃无语正黄昏,荷锄归去掩重门;

青灯照壁人初睡,冷雨敲窗被未温。

为奴底事倍伤神,半为怜春半恼春:

怜春忽至恼忽去,至又无言去不闻。

昨宵庭外悲歌发,知是花魂与鸟魂?

花魂鸟魂总难留,鸟自无言花自羞;

愿奴胁下生双翼,随花飞到天尽头。

天尽头,何处有香丘?

未若锦囊收艳骨,一抔净土掩风流;

质本洁来还洁去,强于污淖陷渠沟。

尔今死去侬收葬,未卜侬身何日丧?

侬今葬花人笑痴,他年葬侬知是谁?

试看春残花渐落,便是红颜老死时;

一朝春尽红颜老,花落人亡两不知!



I remember her. One of the best TV operas from the famous (A Dream Of The Red Mensions ). She were the DaiYu. A very sad but beautiful character. My classmates from my middle shchool used to say I look a lot like her.

I can't believe she is dead now. After her conversion to buddhism, what had happened to her for all these years? She herself is one Daiyu.
