Into the Dark Dreaded Dynasty

Creeping behind the shadows Awed by its extravagant architecture Nighttime has arrived I peered into the dark historical ages Ornamental columns carved with exquisite designs Soured into the sky The scale of axial symmetry Has conquered my eyes Entering a garden so stylish and pure With plunge bath of the night Of lake emitting fragrances Of the petal of lotus so bright Stately mausoleums Built to satisfy their greed Damsels of intense beauty Their bodies have been pleased Of warriors and horses stood gallantly in place Ready to fight what their emperor has state Behind the beauty of the palace at night All will be gone when a new century has arrived
