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
