《驾幸新丰温泉宫献诗三首·其二》 上官婉儿

鸾旂掣曳拂空回，羽骑骖驔蹑景来。
隐隐骊山云外耸，迢迢御帐日边开。

Wind-rattled phoenix pennons
turn brushing through the sky,
Shaggy-hoofed steeds of the horse guard
come stamping beams of light(1).
Mount Li lies sunk in shadow,
jutting beyond the clouds,
While far in the distance the royal tent
opens beside the sun.(2)

1. This image plays on the name of one of the First Emperor Qin Shihuang's famous horses, “Light-Stamper.”
2. This describes the imperial guard surrounding the emperor, the embodiment of the sun.
