《读红楼》- 毛泽东

杰作红楼传千古，影映封建斥王侯。

自古忠臣多逆子，唯有宝黛入神州。

A Seven-Character Quatrain by Mao Ze-dong

(Perusing the Dream of the Red Chamber)

The timeless Dream of the Red Chamber bares

The feudal world to chastise each liege lord —

— Sith eld, ruly lords bear unruly heirs,

But Bao and Dai — twin Jades alone adored.  

Tr. Ziyuzile
