《木兰辞》（Part 6）

开我东阁门，坐我西阁床，

脱我战时袍，著我旧时裳。

当窗理云鬓，对镜帖花黄。

出门看火伴，火伴皆惊忙:

同行十二年，不知木兰是女郎。

She opens the doors east and west

And sits on her bed for a rest.

She doffs her garb wore under fire

And wears again female attire.

Before the window she arranges her hair

And in the mirror sees her image fair.

Then she comes out to see her former mate,

Who stares at her in amazement great:

"We have marched together for twelve years,

We did not know there was a lass' mid our compeers!"
