Now that the palace-gate has softly closed on its flowers，
Ladies file out to their pavilion① of jade，
Brim to the lips with imperial② gossip③
But not daring to breathe it with a parrot among them.
① pavilionn. 亭子，凉亭 vt. 为……建亭；为……搭篷
② imperialadj. 专横的；威严的；宏大的
③ gossipn. 闲话，聊天；流言蜚语 vi. 闲聊
宫词
朱庆余
寂寂花时闭院门，
美人相并立琼轩。
含情欲说宫中事，
鹦鹉前头不敢言。
