Lihn Siu Gwai, smells amazing, her cinnamon aura is intoxicating.
🎃 This poetic story, on the other hand, reeks of ghosts 👻
| 蓮小桂，散桂香，身發玉桂萬人迷。 | Lihn Siu Gwai, smells amazing, her cinnamon aura is intoxicating. |
| 收成季，拜佛跪，癸時出發採秋葵。 | It is the harvest season, bow to Buddha, at 10 o’clock she sets off to pick okra |
| 小鬼怪，受遣派，尋覓閨女返靈界。 | A little ghost, is sent to find maidens and bring them to the spirit world. |
| 拐小桂，嫌味壞，帶女前往見神怪。 | Snatches Siu Gwai, hates her smell, and takes her to see the demons and monsters. |
| 越詭山，過幽河 | Over an eerie mountain, across a secluded river |
| 擺脫鬼手心餘悸。 | she breaks free from her ghoulish captor but still has lingering fear |
| 鬼追人，狂嗅尋，藏身桂樹唇緊閉。 | Ghost chases after, crazily sniffing and searching, she hides in the cinnamon tree with pursed lips. |
| 遇危澗，踏靈龜，餽贈玉劍心有愧。 | Traversing a perilous stream, she stumbles over a spirit tortoise and receives a jade sword with guilt. |
| 窺門開， 急離開，靈鬼擋路揮劍宰。 | Glimpse an open door, hurry to leave. Spirit ghosts block her way and she kills it with the sword. |
| 劍兩翼，沾鬼液，黏滑似葵膩之極。 | Both sides of the sword, stained with slime, very slippery and slimy. |
| 凱旋歸，守空閨 | Returns in triumph, back to her boudoir |
| 今後再不吃秋葵。 | and never eat okra again. |
