Ngan Siu-Mui's Cursive Script Calligraphy
Du Fu [Watching Gongsun's disciples perform sword dance] — 2011
Inscription
Once upon a time,
there was a beautiful woman named Lady Gongsun
Whenever she danced the sword dance,
she would cause a sensation in all directions.
Mountains of crowd are watching,
hearts tremble and face flushing,
The world was also moved by her dance, up and down.
The sword's light is bright and dazzling,
just like Hou Yi shooting down the nine suns,
and the dancing posture is vigorous and agile,
just like the gods flying on the dragon.
