Three Variations of the Plum Blossom 梅花三弄 ~ xiao flute solo 簫獨奏 

I have no intention of holding onto spring,
I’ll leave jealousy for various flowers to endure.
As blossoms fall to the ground and turn to dust,
They leave only the fragrances that never change.
Lu You (1125-1210)
无意苦争春，一任群芳妒。
零落成泥碾作尘，只有香如故。
宋 • 陆游《卜算子· 咏梅》
