Beauty and the Blossom

On this day last year, on the very spot where I am now,
the face of the a beauty reflected the beauty of the peach blossom.
The beauty is not present here at the moment,
leaving only the blossom still swaying in the spring wind like the smiling face.

【题都城南庄】
崔护
去年今日此门中，
人面桃花相映红。
人面不知何处去，
桃花依旧笑春风。

Enjoy.

Poetry is impossible to translate perfectly. You have done a good job.

Hi MMF

I loved that, your languages sound amazing to me, the sounds in the second Chinese version are incredible!!!

How the bloody hell do you speak like that!? You're like a genius :D

Here is my version, I've tried my best :)

If you like the sound of it, I've had a little help because I used my skills in music production to add some bass, some treble and some reverb (and a noise gate of sorts).

I hope you like it, yours gave me goosebumps! Beautiful!
