A teenager can marry me when my hair reaches my waist;
Would you like to wear ten miles of red makeup when you are young and healthy?
But I'm afraid of waist-length hair and teenagers falling in love with others.
Treat you with green silk and smile to see you smile with her.
The source is "Ten Miles of Red Makeup, Daughter's Dream", written by He Xiaodao, also known as Trail, from Ninghai, Zhejiang, 1963.
Translation:
Will you marry me when my hair grows to my waist and the time is right?
Would you like to lay a ten-mile red carpet and marry me after your coronation?
I'm afraid that by that time, you'll already like someone else;
When you should marry me, you saw her smiling in your arms.
