隔着竹簾兒看見他
銀盤大臉黑頭髮
月白緞子棉襖銀疙疸

TRANSLATION
On the sandy plain ― gallops a white horse ― galloping gets to the (horseman's) future father-in-law's house ― his elder brother-in-law invites him to come in ― his younger brother-in-law pulls him in ― through the bamboo-curtain he has seen her ― her large face as white as a silver-tray and her black hair ― and her cotton overcoat of light azure colour with silver buttons.
