Xichang\'s Moon

If I say Xichang’s moon
is like a harlot
Respectable gentleman will call me a hooligan
If I say Xichang’s moon
is like a hooligan
People will laugh at my nonsense
When the bright moon fills the sky
I stand (sitting is ok too)
in the moonlight reading a book
Even the punctuation is clearly visible
Xichang’s moon isn’t like anything
It’s just really big

西昌的月亮

西昌的月亮

如果我说西昌的月亮
像一个荡妇
正人君子会骂我流氓
如果我说西昌的月亮
像一个流氓
人民会笑我胡说
皓月当空的时候
我站在(坐着也行)
月光下看一本书
连标点符号都清晰可见
西昌的月亮什么也不像
它只是很大
