            'South wind has not risen but the delicate girl plays the lute.' This conveys a classical, poetic atmosphere, suggesting a girl as gentle as a breeze, who can play the lute gracefully even in tranquil times. 'The south wind' represents spring breeze or good luck in ancient Chinese literature, and lute-playing is one form of traditional artistic attainment for ladies.
