English:Paint the lily
汉语:锦上添花
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily/To throw a perfume on the violet/To smooth the ice, or add another hue/Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light/To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish/Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
把纯金镀上金箔,替百合花涂抹粉彩,在紫罗兰的花瓣上浇洒人工的香水,研磨光滑的冰块,替彩虹添上一道色彩,或是企图用微弱的烛光增添那太阳的光辉,实在是浪费而又可笑的多事。
