This is a vocal composition on the same titled poem by the great ancient Chinese litterateur Ōuyáng Xiū（欧阳修）from the Sòng Dynasty（宋朝）. The title literally means "magnolia", but it's just a structure name （词牌名）of the poem, and the poem itself is the lyrics for a relative piece of music of that time. We call this kind of poems "Sòng Cí"（宋词）,which means "lyrics from Sòng Dynasty".
